About

Hi, I am Lakshya.

I am a software engineer with almost a decade of backend development experience. Currently, I am working in AI@Meta where I have been building expertise in ML and AI infrastructure, specifically delving into the fascinating world of GenAI while focusing on improving research to prod velocity. Previously, I have worked at AWS and Goldman Sachs.

I have a knack for backend engineering and previously, I've navigated various tech stacks, from GCP to AWS, where I was spinning up infrastructure from the ground up and often scaling existing production infrastructure.

As a team leader, I also find joy in mentoring junior engineers interns, nurturing growth and collaboration. I thrive on problem-solving and firmly believe that no challenge is too big or small.

Whether you are in a college application process looking for application review, grad student seeking career advice, a seasoned engineer looking to brainstorm a technical problem / start a new project, or just someone stuck on a heisenbug, I'd be happy to hop on a good hands-on problem-solving session and provide both technical and career goals accomplishments support.

Excited to be a part of "becoming the better you" journey that you are on....

I sought mentorship to prepare for technical software engineering interviews, and Lakshya has been an incredible support. She has significantly increased my knowledge in system design concepts, guiding me through deep dives on various topics and providing live feedback in a mock interview format. This practice has greatly improved my communication and problem-solving skills. Lakshya has deep expertise in backend engineering, combined with a careful attention to detail and an encouraging attitude, which ensure's the growth of her mentees. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to enhance their technical skills or prepare for software engineering interviews!

If I were to leave a one-word review for Lakshya, it would be - Excellent/Outstanding/Superlative - take your pick. She excels in the AI, ML, and SWE space and is even better at bringing out the best in you. Helpful, motivating, insightful – she embodies all the qualities you want in a mentor.

Lakshya was great in identifying opportunities that helped me steer toward my goal. Throughout the call, Lakshya was highly interested in listening to my queries and responded in a logical manner that helped me understand my roles and responsibilities as a Data Engineer. She in particular taught me how various tools and technologies tie toghether to get the engineering job done. Overall, the session was informative and I am wanting to repeat multiple sessions like this in future
