About

I am Lakhan Dhingra. I work as a senior software engineer at ICICI Lombard. In the past, I have worked at Searchlight Health and GetSprint (YC W20). I studied Mining Engineering from ISM Dhanbad and then, moved to Bangalore to start my career as a software engineer.

I like to read, write and occasionally travel. My topics of interest are startups, programming and distributed systems.

Motivation behind this blog: This will be an online repository of things I am working on or thinking about. It is an attempt to articulate my thoughts clearly and connect with other like-minded individuals. Feel free to DM.

If you're in Bangalore, let's catch up for a ☕.
