Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDilip Ojha is a founding engineer with 11 years of full‑stack and systems experience, now based in the San Francisco Bay Area. He spent seven years at Microsoft contributing to Windows App SDK and WinUI 3, where he fixed subtle XAML UI bugs and streamlined WPF security internals—work that required both C#/C++ proficiency and careful test-driven refactoring. Comfortable across mobile and desktop stacks, his background spans iOS (Swift/Objective‑C), Java/Spring web work, and complex client frameworks. At startups and internships he shipped camera and app features end-to-end, often teaching himself new platforms on the job. He brings a blend of product-focused delivery and deep technical craftsmanship, often tackling thorny UI state and permissions issues that are easy to miss but critical in large codebases. Now leading engineering at his own venture, he pairs hands‑on coding with startup building instincts.
