I'm Prodhosh. I learn something new every single day, and I genuinely enjoy it. I like working with people, figuring things out together and shipping work I'm proud of.
I've freelanced with a bunch of companies and startups, building software solutions, automations, full software systems and websites. Today I'm the CTO at Annexra, where I own the architecture, delivery and engineering quality for everything we build.
I'm a CS sophomore at VIT Chennai, doing a BS in Data Science at IIT Madras alongside it.
- Right now: CTO at Annexra, full-stack intern at Midgreen
- Learning: agentic AI, fintech, system design and how software behaves when real people and real money depend on it
- Leveling up in cloud: AWS, every day
- Open to: freelance projects and SDE roles
