Hello there! 👋

Pushpak Chhajed.


Hey, I’m a tinkerer, hacker, and software engineer from India.

My coding journey started at 2012 when I began customizing Cydia themes for my iPad, which quickly fueled my obsession with computers and the internet. I started learning swift. I shifted to web tech-learning HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Building websites sparked my passion for creating impactful products. While studying at Mumbai University, I gained hands-on experience at early-stage startups, learning to solve real customer problems and build end-to-end solutions. few of them are Taxvisor and Behtaar.

I dove deep into the Laravel ecosystem while working at Eastern Enterprise ,a Netherlands-based service startup. Even in a service environment, I kept my hacker mindset tinkering with different technologies and tools.The pandemic coincided with my fourth year of university, allowing me to balance my academics with a full-time role at a UK-based fintech startup called Clearglass Analytics . Here, I honed my skills in product engineering,contributing to various teams and building features that improved workflows.

Recently, I participated in a Laracon India hackathon that got my interest in large language models (LLMs). This led to my current role (Senior Software Engineer) at Bigly Sales, where I’m scaling our LLM and Laravel pipeline to automate customer communications, handling millions of calls and SMS daily.

As of 2024, my current focus is on:
Programming: TypeScript, PHP, Python, Laravel, and Vue.
Hobbies: Hackathons, open-source contributions and Travelling.

When I’m not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, reading about the latest trends, or traveling.
I’m always up for a chat or collaboration. Hit me up on Twitter or Email!
