About me

Hi, my name is Prasanth Vaaheeswaran. I’m currently an Advisory Software Developer and Team Lead at IBM. I’ve been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to work in many different areas of application development. Starting as a front-end developer to where I am now, it has been an interesting journey.

Currently I spend most of my time with the following tasks:

• designing and building distributed systems
• solving scaling issues
• exploring events based architectures
• modernizing bulk job based workflows with faas workflows
• team building, workshops

I enjoy exploring solutions for problems, especially ones that leverage the great open source options we have. I’m an avid book piler, I think there’s a pretty Japanese name for that, Tsundoku. I also enjoy building little cli tools.

Besides software, I’m also an amateur photographer (lots of software folks share this interest, go figure!) and enjoy riding my 🏍 when I can. I also like to hit up the local meetup scene, enjoying our local golang one the most!
