I'm Deep Shah, a software engineer, founder, and eternal tinkerer. I’ve been building software professionally since 2002—yes, I write code, and no, I don’t draw pretty diagrams to avoid it! I believe in clean code, unit tests, and re-factoring (or should we say re-writing?) as a way of life.
I started my engineering journey at Sardar Patel University, a place you’ve probably never heard of, but one I owe a lot to. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of technologies—from mobile platforms (Android, iPhone, Symbian) to modern IDEs and distributed systems. I’m a fan of Unix-based systems, Vim (when in a hurry), and prefer git—but yes, I’ve used Mercurial too!
I'm also the founder of Makkajai, where we built Monster Math, a fun and adventurous way for kids to fall in love with math.
When I’m not coding, you’ll find me trekking, playing tennis, or planning my next travel escape. I’ve wandered across India and explored France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Israel, South Africa, Egypt, Bhutan, Canada, US, Mauritius and more—with many more pins yet to drop on the map.
