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 at Twilio, creating amazing communication experiences for thousands of developers and enterprises worldwide. Internshala taught me how to ship. Spinny taught me how to ship fast. At Twilio, I'm doing both, while also learning how to ship at planetary scale.
I'm passionate about 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).
