About Sourav Dey

Senior Software Engineer at HackerRank

I'm a Founding Engineer at AlphaStreet, building the product from 0 to 1. Before this, I spent five years as a Senior Software Engineer at HackerRank, working on the platform companies use to assess and hire engineers, and before that I was at TCS Digital. Over 8+ years I've shipped React, Next.js, TypeScript, and AI products used by millions.

These days I spend a lot of time on the other side of the table: reviewing resumes, running interviews, and deciding who gets hired. That's the perspective I bring to mentoring.

I mostly work with software engineers with 1–10 years of experience who want to switch roles, move up a level, or understand why their interviews aren't converting. I also help engineers thinking about a move to a startup, and founders who want an honest read on their stack or first hires.

What to expect from me: straight answers, mock interviews run like real rounds, and resume feedback tied to the roles you're actually targeting. You'll leave with a clear next step, not just general advice.

I've done 2,000+ mentoring sessions across platforms. Bring your resume, your job description, or the question that's been bugging you.
