I’m Abhishek, a full stack developer in Melbourne. I build backend systems for banks, and lead the teams that ship them.

Ten years in. Java and Spring Boot behind the glass, Angular and React in front of it, AWS underneath.

Previously at HCL Technologies and Capgemini

Vehicle specs, for an automaker

Sat with the client's own engineers until we understood what they actually needed. That part won the bid. The code came second, and was easier.

Document generation at volume

Early days. PDFs for an FMCG catalogue, plus the spec writing that kept everyone honest about scope.

Away from the keyboard

I'd rather be outside. Most weekends that means a trail somewhere north of Melbourne, and most holidays mean a passport. [ONE LINE IN YOUR OWN WORDS.]

Worked alongside teams in Canada, Japan and the US. Kept travelling once the projects ended.
