engineer • developer • builder
Hey, I’m Dhvanit — a backend engineer who loves building (and occasionally breaking) things. I work with PERN, Go, and GenAI to ship systems that are fast, reliable, and scalable.
From side projects to real-world backends, I enjoy solving messy problems and making products work.
