Hello, I'm Raman
Curious Engineer
I design and build systems that last. My work lives at the intersection of deep technical execution and strategic direction—translating ambitious ideas into resilient architectures and cultivating engineering practices that scale.
I stay hands-on. Whether it's squeezing milliseconds out of performance-critical paths, designing distributed systems, or running experiments in my homelab, I approach engineering with curiosity and precision. At the same time, I focus on clarity in architecture and practices that empower teams long after the original builders move on.
Beyond building, I share. Through writing and exploration, I aim to spark conversations in the tech community—about performance, scalability, modern architecture, and the craft of engineering leadership.
If you'd like to connect around technology, systems thinking, or future collaborations, find me on LinkedIn, GitHub, or Twitter.
What I Focus On
Performance Engineering
I'm fascinated by speed and efficiency. I go from profiling code paths to rethinking system design, always with the goal of reducing friction and latency at scale.
System Architecture
I believe the right design is context-driven. Sometimes that means a simple monolith, sometimes a distributed system—always pragmatic, always built to endure.
Technical Leadership
Leadership, to me, means staying close to the work while enabling others to excel. I focus on practices and standards that grow strong engineering cultures.
Engineering Strategy
I see engineering as a long game. The choices we make compound over years. My approach is to optimize for clarity, sustainability, and the economics of technical debt.
From Idea to Impact
Every innovative solution begins as a raw idea. I transform these ideas into impactful, scalable products that address real-world challenges while building engineering organizations that deliver lasting value.
-
0 → 1: Building Foundations
I translate raw ideas into working systems. This means moving fast without fragility, putting in place principles that allow for future growth without rewrites.
-
1 → 10: Scaling Up
Once validated, I design for scale—both in systems and in people. That includes rethinking architectures, optimizing performance, and creating processes that make results repeatable.
My philosophy is simple: build things that matter, and build them to last.
Insights & Articles
Welcome to my digital notebook. This is where I share ideas, lessons, and experiments from building and scaling systems. It's less about “quick fixes” and more about exploring the reasoning, trade-offs, and thinking that make engineering durable.
My Approach to Sharing
Instead of jumping straight to the answer. My posts typically follow a structure:
- The Problem: Framing the challenge.
- The Exploration: Considering paths, trade-offs, and reasoning.
- The Solution: A clear, practical approach that others can adapt.
My goal is to contribute to the tech community's collective knowledge, while refining my own. If you have a topic you'd like me to explore, reach out on Twitter or LinkedIn.
