Hi, I'm Amit
Software Engineer who loves building things. Currently building at CIBC.
01 / About me
I'm a software engineer who likes building systems that actually hold up in the real world. I'm drawn to tricky constraints and I enjoy finding clean, practical solutions. I've worked in production environments at large Canadian companies.
Outside of work, I'm always open to collaborating on projects. If you're building something interesting, I'd love to hear about it.
