About

Hi, I'm Abhishek Soni. I am a Principal Engineer based in Noida, India, currently working at AmbitionBox (acquired by Naukri.com). I have over 8 years of experience playing around and breaking things across backend, frontend, mobile apps, and custom scripts.

My expertise lies in building reliable, high-throughput systems, event-driven architectures, and distributed systems. Over the years, I've had my hands in pretty much everything: Go, Python, Java, JavaScript, and scaling infrastructure using AWS, Docker, Kafka, and Elasticsearch. I enjoy leading engineering teams to deliver clean, production-ready software with precision and execution discipline.

Beyond my day job, I love tinkering, doing random experiments with AI, and building toy projects to "scratch my own itch." One of my biggest obsessions is financial markets and microstructure - I run fully automated live trading strategies, including sub-second options scalping algorithms and quantitative equity models.

I built this blog as a space to share my technical learnings, document my side projects, and give back to the community that has helped me learn so much.

P.S. Fall seven times, rise eight.
