About Me
Developer by profession, fitness enthusiast by passion
Hi, I'm Eeshan Bembi
Platform Engineer | Fitness Enthusiast | Lifelong Learner
🚀 Current Role: I'm a Platform Engineer at CockroachDB. With my educational foundation from Thapar University and currently pursuing my MS in Computer Science at Georgia Tech (OMSCS), I bring a deep understanding of both theoretical foundations and practical engineering.
💡 Technical Journey: My tech journey includes authoring Dream11's AWS scaling blog, detailing how we handled 11M+ concurrent users during peak traffic. I've solved 878+ problems on LeetCode and work across the full stack - from frontend to backend, infrastructure, and recently diving deep into LLMs and AI integration with tools like Claude AI, GPT-4, and RAG systems.
💪 Fitness Transformation: Beyond code, I'm equally passionate about fitness. Starting from zero in 2024, I've achieved a 400kg powerlifting total, transformed my body composition from 33.5% to 22.1% body fat while gaining 6.9kg of muscle, and completed my first 10K run. My philosophy is simple: the discipline from crushing PRs in the gym translates directly to crushing bugs in production.
🎯 My Approach: Whether it's optimizing database queries or perfecting my squat form, I approach every challenge with the same mindset: consistent improvement, data-driven decisions, and relentless execution. Platform engineering by day, platform PRs by night.
