Jitesh Kumar

I am a Software Engineer with 2 years of experience in building backend systems. I always aim to solve problems rather than just building solutions.

Previously, I worked at honc as a Software Development Engineer, where I focused on the core features of the app and built microservices from scratch using Node.js, MongoDB, and Redis.

I'm passionate about designing scalable systems and have a deep interest in distributed systems, database development, and mathematics.
