About Magesh

I'm a Software Consultant originally from Chennai, India, and I recently moved to New Jersey with my family. I've been building web applications since 2009 and write code for fun. I enjoy learning new technologies and teaching others.

I work at Sedin (Railsfactory), a software consulting firm, where I help developers learn new technologies and improve their coding skills. I run bootcamps, conduct workshops, and assist teams in solving technical challenges.

Before this, I ran my own startup for nearly six years—a small software consulting company that helped startups turn their ideas into real software products. Eventually, I decided to step away to focus on my passion for learning and teaching.

Beyond work, I love organizing and attending tech meetups. I'm the coordinator of a local developer group called Chennai Geeks and was the lead for Meta Developer Circle Chennai Chapter. Over the past eight years, I've helped organize numerous events, meetups, tech talks, and hackathons.

Outside of tech, I enjoy watching TV shows and reading books. Right now, I'm watching Ted Lasso on Apple TV.
