👋 Hiyo!
I'm Rishi. I have been a full stack software engineer for over almost two decades with a passion for creativity: in addition to my technical skills, I am also proficient in illustration and audio / video production.
🎯 Goals
My goal is always to combine my technical expertise with my creative skills in any work that I do.
I very much enjoy the process of talking to stakeholders and identifying the problem to solve, and being part of the solution architecture (not just being a cog in the machine). I strongly believe software is a tool for humans to use and not a fishing net to capture them.
🤖 AI?
AI? Sure I use AI where relevant. But I know how to wrangle it and I understand every atomic code commit. I can play systems architect and guide the robot incrementally in the right direction.
I am not naive and just ask the robot to "build me a scalable enterprise solution to so and so a problem, post haste!"
