Engineering for real problems.
I'm Ankit Mishra, an engineer and technology leader based in Dubai. For 19 years I've worked on software, enterprise platforms and engineering teams. I'm interested in how complex systems work and why they fail.
I write here to think more clearly, and to share ideas I usually keep to myself. Mostly about technology, sometimes about life.
