Software Engineer
I'm Manak, a Software Engineer at Twilio building products that scale.
My journey started at the University of Delhi with a Computer Science degree and a laptop that barely ran an IDE. From there, I built learning platforms at Internshala, reimagined car-buying experiences at Spinny, and now I'm helping thousands of developers get started with communication APIs at Twilio. Internshala taught me how to ship fast. Spinny taught me how to scale. Twilio is teaching me how to do both while keeping thousands of customers happy.
I'm passionate about building large-scale distributed systems that are reliable, scalable, and available. The kind that don't fall over at 3 AM (well, most of the time).
When I'm AFK, I'm lifting weights (PRs are PRs), reading, or staring at stock charts (investing is just debugging, but with money).
