About

A decade of building software, one problem at a time.

I'm Ashish — a software consultant based in India. I've been writing code professionally since 2014, starting with iOS and web frontends, and gradually expanding into backend systems, infrastructure, and system architecture. I enjoy the craft of building things that work well and last.

I've worked with startups from pre-seed to Series A, and with corporates too. Each taught me something different — startups taught me speed and ownership; corporates taught me process and patience. The common thread? Solving problems for real people.

Today, I consult at NETIX AI, write on this blog, contribute to open-source, and occasionally make YouTube videos to make technology more approachable.

The Journey

2014

Started as a Mobile & Web Developer

Began with iOS and frontend web — fell in love with building interfaces people interact with daily.

2017

Joined the Startup World

Moved from corporates to startups. Learned that comfort zones are overrated and that adding value beats adding features.

2020

Started Writing & Teaching

Launched this blog and a YouTube channel to share what I was learning — from code architecture to career lessons.

2022

Expanded into Backend & Infra

Dove into Django, self-hosted infrastructure, Docker, Nginx, DNS — the full stack for real this time.

Now

Software Consultant

Helping teams ship reliable software, writing about the craft, and still learning something new every week.

What I Believe In

  • Add value, not just solutions.
  • Self-learning is the key to growth.
  • Lead with empathy, challenge with purpose.
  • Good software is built by people who care.
  • Your network is your net worth.
