Mentor | System Design | API Integration | Coding Strategy | Startup Thinking | Communication Mastery

I’m Aravind — a systems thinker, problem solver, and product-minded engineer with a passion for mentoring ambitious learners in software engineering, system design, and startup-style thinking. I bring a unique blend of real-world tech experience (Microsoft, Amazon), a structured approach to learning, and a knack for translating complex ideas into clear, actionable strategies.

I specialize in:
• System Design & Integration – covering everything from API communication and OAuth/JWT security to event-driven architectures and resilient service patterns.
• Coding Interview Prep – deep dives into graphs, dynamic programming, greedy strategies, and real-world-style problems that sharpen intuition, not just technique.
• Startup-Thinking & Product Building – guiding mentees in idea validation, MVP development, and designing systems that scale.
• Communication & Influence – helping engineers explain technical ideas with impact, using a vital 20% that drives 80% of results.

My mentoring style is intense but supportive — I focus on clarity, mindset, and unlocking peak performance. Whether you’re aiming for FAANG interviews, building your own tech product, or mastering complex concepts like distributed transactions or rate limiting, I’ll help you get there with rigor and inspiration.

Let’s turn deep knowledge into your superpower.
