Top SchoolSamad Khan is a pragmatic software engineer with five years of experience building scalable web and backend systems, currently at Blinkit after a sequence of impact-focused roles at Middleware where he helped ship provider-agnostic data pipelines, an alerting system, and an MCP server for AI workflows.
