About

Hi, I’m Pranshu Raj — a backend engineer and systems thinker.

I use this space to write about building scalable systems, working with real-time infrastructure, and making tools that help me (and hopefully others) think and work better.

I tinker with real-time systems, build tools to offload thinking, and chase the balance between speed, simplicity, and usefulness.

What You’ll Find Here

• Tech deep dives — performance tuning, real-time systems, backend tricks.
• Build logs — documenting how I approach and ship personal projects.
• Tools & automations — things I build to reduce friction in life and work.
• Ideas & reflections — learning in public, experimenting with structure and focus.

I keep my rough notes in a separate website
