Hey, I'm Nitin Ahirwal.
I’m a Software Engineer focused on building modern, scalable, and user-centric digital products.
My stack includes TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Hono, FastAPI, React Native, Tailwind CSS, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, GraphQL, REST APIs, AI/LLM integrations, and cloud infrastructure. I enjoy architecting performant applications, designing clean APIs, optimizing systems, and delivering seamless user experiences.
I’m passionate about software architecture, DevOps, automation, performance engineering, and building reliable systems that scale from startup MVPs to enterprise applications.
Outside of coding, I spend my time running self-hosted services, experimenting with Proxmox clusters, optimizing Linux servers, exploring cybersecurity, networking, and contributing to open-source projects.
