Hi, I’m Ratik — a software engineer with 6+ years of experience building products. I’m currently building Android apps at Fueled.

I am also a part-time podcaster, custom mechanical keyboards enthusiast, wanna–be writer, and full-time wheelchair user. I love receiving emails over at hi@ratik.in.

Reflection (2022)

Looking back at the year 2022 to see what went well, what needs work, and what needs stopping.

Side Effects in Programming

It took me a while to wrap my head around side effects. What finally made it click for me was stumbling across an elegant example.

About

Photo of Ratik

Hi, I’m Ratik and I love making things!

I am a Software Engineer by profession but I don’t let that limit me when it comes to making things. I enjoy pursuing a wide variety of creative projects: from home-cooked apps like Uttam to podcasts like Frndship Time.

I work as a Sr. Mobile Engineer on the Android team over at Fueled, a creative agency based out of NYC. Before that, I worked as a software engineer at Meraki, an education-focussed non-profit.

I have a disability called spinal muscular atrophy and I care deeply about matters of equity and accessibility.

When I’m not writing code, I spend time listening to music, writing, building mechanical keyboards, savouring a cup of coffee, or diving into a good book or movie.

I love conversations and am always up for a chat. You can get in touch with me via email on hi@ratik.in.
