Who am I?


I'm Tushar, an engineer-turned-engineering-manager who lives for two kinds of beats: the ones our servers handle at 99.9% uptime and the ones I hammer out on my drum kit.

After breaking Zomato free from monoliths, scaling product launches at Eternal, leading a 23-person team, and cutting infrastructure costs by tens of thousands, I've learned one thing: curiosity, rhythm, and intentional bad puns fuel everything worth building.

Beyond my day job at Zomato and volunteer work with Feeding India, I'm tinkering with Harvests, a system I built to grow perfect cherry tomatoes and lettuce. This blog is where I share unfiltered retrospectives on leadership, product, and the inevitable failures.

Off the clock, I trade standups for the drum kit - classic rock, preferably. Same energy whether I'm orchestrating global releases or nailing a 4/4 groove: ship fast, keep it tight, leave them wanting more.

Let's build something that makes noise (the good kind!) 👾
