Hi 👋, I’m Ashwini Kumar

A Google Developer Expert - Firebase and a Mentor at Scaler. Currently, I hold the position of Director of Software Engineering, overseeing the development of mobile and web applications at PayU Credit. I’m a proud Computer Science alumnus of NIT Trichy, with a track record of architecting and developing applications that have made a significant impact on the Indian tech landscape. My experience spans diverse domains, including Gaming(Mobile Premier League), FinTech(InCred), Entertainment(Disney+Hotstar), Healthcare and eCommerce(1mg), HCM Fusion Apps(Oracle), and Agro & Construction Tech(Trimble). As technology continues to evolve, I am committed to the pursuit of engineering excellence every day 🎯

When I’m not immersed in code, you can find me exploring articles and open-source repositories to gather fresh ideas that can be shared with the team. I also enjoy spending time with friends, engaging in board games like Secret Hitler and Codenames 🥷
