Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAahnik Daw is a pragmatic software engineer and computer science undergrad from IIIT Sri City with about six years of hands-on experience across backend engineering, databases (Postgres, MongoDB, ClickHouse), and distributed systems. Currently a SWE intern at Writesonic, he has built practical open-source tools—like tgcf, a mature Telegram message-forwarding live-syncer—and contributed type-hardened improvements to the Python Notion SDK. He favors Python, TypeScript and C++, is exploring Go/Rust/Zig, and brings an engineering philosophy of simple, bloat-free systems that prioritize business needs over over-engineering. Comfortable using AI as a productivity and learning tool, he nonetheless emphasizes mastering fundamentals and regularly builds weekend projects to experiment with new ideas. Based in Kolkata, he’s open to technical discussions and aims to move into computer vision and deep learning as his next deep focus.
