About

Rahul Kashyap is an experienced Engineering Manager with over 8 years of professional and freelancing experience in writing scalable distributed systems and profound knowledge in cloud native architectures. He is currently working at Sportskeeda, a platform that provides exclusive content, live scores, videos, and in-depth articles produced by experienced sports journalists to over 150 million annual and 50 million monthly users. Rahul has a passion for solving convoluted business problems with technology and has a `Hack It !` attitude that encourages him to never give up. He loves to code in JavaScript and Go, but he is also open to working with other tools and technologies and even trying out obnoxious stuff to judge the trade-offs. Rahul enjoys evangelizing knowledge and spreading awareness of different things that could simplify human lives or make things simpler. He believes in empathy and thinks that even the bleakest moments can be turned into positive ones with trust and belief. With technology, we can indeed solve problems, but the main challenge is to solve the same problems with both People and Technology. In his previous roles, Rahul worked as a Senior Software Engineer at JFrog, where he designed and delivered many exciting features for the Pipelines team, and at Wunderflats, where he was responsible for the development of mostly backend-related features for the website, implementation of changes to the CRM system, and overall technical implementation for the Marketing Automation project. He also designed the company's initial Data Wiki to document Wunderflat's database model and paired with and mentored junior colleagues in the team. Rahul holds a Master of Technology in Computer Software Engineering from Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, and a Bachelor's of Computer Applications in Computer Science from Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University. He has relevant experience in Senior Software Engineering, Software Engineering, Mobile, Javascript, DevOps, Microservices, Infra, CI/CD, Integration, Backend, AWS, SRE, Parts-of-speech, Android, Kubernetes, iOS, Azure, Frontend, and Web.
