Akash Mishra
I'm a software engineer who enjoys building things that people actually use. Over the past 2 years, I've worked across backend engineering, full-stack development, AI, and blockchain, building production systems, APIs, and real-world applications. I like working in environments where I can take ownership, learn quickly, and solve challenging problems alongside great people.
