I'm a software developer at Odoo, where I work on the Point of Sale - a codebase used by more than 15 million people. Most of the job is the unglamorous kind of engineering: untangling old code, making slow things fast, and making sure a till in one shop agrees with the till standing next to it.
Before that I studied Electrical Engineering at NIT Surat, and spent most of it discovering I liked writing software more than I liked circuits.
