Fixing Tech Hiring

I'm the founder of 🚀 Roc8 Careers. Roc8 helps you get a good tech job based on your skills and not where you come from. We’ve placed 100+ devs from tier-3 backgrounds at good companies and startups. Prior to that, I worked as a Software Developer at Amazon and as a Product Manager at Meesho (YC S16).

You can find me spending hours picking my next book to read - it’s almost a guilty pleasure. I love psychology, especially Adlerian - I wish it were taught in schools. I'm always up for trying new things as life is too short to postpone fun! Not using Oxford commas is my pet peeve.
