Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAakarsh Chopra is a Lead Software Engineer based in Bengaluru with nine years of full‑stack experience building high‑performance web platforms and data apps. An IIT Madras B.Tech alumnus, he has repeatedly driven product launches and customer‑critical features—most recently leading the engineering effort for a BigQuery‑like query console at StarTree and now heading engineering at Versable. He specializes in Next.js and React, pairs fast iteration with attention to SEO and page speed, and has a track record of rescuing and improving poorly written codebases. Aakarsh blends hands‑on implementation (from backend and AWS deployments to frontend optimization) with mentoring and team-building, having led onboarding of new hires and student teams. He’s an entrepreneurial problem solver—cofounded a YC‑vetted startup and built products that won national pitch contests—who prefers planning that reduces coding through smarter design. His personal mantra, visible on GitHub, is “Plan better. Code less.”
