About Me:

Hello, my name is Gaurav Mehla. I am a Full-Stack Developer with over a decade of experience in building robust, scalable web applications. I'm passionate about technology, especially in crafting clean, high-performance code, and I have a deep sense of design (this entire website was designed by me). I have a strong love for JavaScript, and currently, my favorite technologies include Node.js and Golang.

I am currently working as a Full-Stack Engineer at @PokerLab in Vancouver. With my extensive experience in developing and designing scalable microservices, I previously led a highly productive team of developers. I am continuously exploring new technologies, and I'm particularly interested in System Design, Data Analytics, ML/AI, and DevOps. My journey is focused on becoming a skilled system architect, driven by a genuine excitement for solving complex problems.

This website is a space for me to share insights from my experiences—a collection of articles on software engineering, technical rants, and personal stories.
