About me!

Hello! I'm Tanish Vashisth, a backend-focused SDE who loves building robust production systems and exploring creative tech. With 1.5+ years of experience across Django, FastAPI, Elasticsearch, Celery, and SQL, I specialize in architecting scalable backends, shipping LLM-driven features, and optimizing API performance (reducing latencies by up to 84%). I also have full-stack exposure with React and AngularJS. When I'm not coding, I design pixel artwork, customize system configs, and get lost in music. Let's collaborate!
