About
Hey, I’m Krithika, a Senior Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance enterprise applications and solving complex engineering problems across frontend and backend systems. I currently work at Mastercard, and previously at BNY (Bank of New York) contributing to systems that support reliable and large-scale financial platforms.
I enjoy solving engineering problems and continuously learning about system design, backend architecture, and building clean, maintainable code.
Through mentorship, I’d love to help with:
• Problem Solving (DSA/Algorithms)
• Full Stack development
• Backend fundamentals and microservices architecture
• System design (LLD + HLD)
• Resume reviews and interview preparation
• Guidance for developers starting/switching their careers in software engineering
• Software Engineering principles and best practices
My goal is to create a friendly and practical mentoring space and not just to help you crack interviews, but to help you think, communicate, and grow like a strong engineer who can confidently compete for opportunities at top product companies.
