Full-stack engineer with a love for React.js, distributed systems, and clean APIs. Building reliable software — one commit at a time.
Hey! I'm Kunal — a full-stack engineer based in Pune, India. I currently work at SAS India as an Associate Software Developer, building and shipping full-stack features across complex enterprise platforms.
I hold a B.Tech in Computer Engineering from PCCOE, Pune with a CGPA of 9.1. My technical roots are in Java and JavaScript, but lately I've fallen in love with Go — there's something deeply satisfying about goroutines and clean, compiled code.
Outside of work I enjoy contributing to open source, exploring system design concepts, and occasionally breaking things just to figure out how they work.
