About Gaurav Dudeja
Staff Engineer | 13 Years Backend & Go | Ex-HelloFresh, MakeMyTrip at Ex Vio
13 years building backend systems at scale — Staff Engineer, Engineering Manager, and Co-Founder roles across Vio.com, HelloFresh, MakeMyTrip, and Airtel Digital/Wynk Music. Go is my primary stack; I've also shipped in Java, Node.js, and Python. Currently Founder & CTO at Digilake, and I also run a fine-dine restaurant — so I bring both deep technical depth and real founder/operator scars. I mentor backend engineers on: system design and LLD at Staff/Principal bar, Golang depth, breaking into senior/lead roles, and interview prep that's tactical, not motivational. If you want someone to tell you what you're missing rather than reassure you, book a session.
