Top SchoolAkshay Dua is a seasoned software leader and founder with 15 years of engineering experience who now runs Slurpalicious, a Portland-area startup powering community-focused food delivery in Astoria, OR. He combines hands-on expertise across React Native frontends, Golang backends, GraphQL, PostGIS-enabled Postgres, Redis, and Ansible with a pragmatic plan to migrate to Kubernetes on DigitalOcean.
