About

With over 15 years of experience as a software engineer and engineering leader across top-tier organizations like Google, Apple, InMobi, Target, and Cohesity, I’ve had the privilege of experiencing both sides of the interview table extensively — as a candidate and as an interviewer.

This journey has given me a realistic and nuanced perspective on what it truly takes to crack interviews at the world’s leading tech companies. I’ve learned to distinguish between what’s important, what’s non-negotiable, and how to incrementally build solutions that reflect structured thinking and technical depth during interviews.

Along the way, I’ve successfully received offers from Uber, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft, in addition to several high-growth startups — each experience shaping my understanding of how different companies evaluate talent, problem-solving ability, and system design maturity.

Through these experiences, I’ve come to deeply value clarity of thought, communication, and step-by-step solution development as the true differentiators between good and great interview performances.
