Hello, I'm Lakshmanan. I'm a software engineer with 7+ years of experience. I enjoy building scalable web applications.
About me
I studied mechanical engineering, then taught myself to code. That path took me from startups in India, via a remote team in Malaysia, to GKN Aerospace in Sweden, where I build software end to end.
