About
Hi, I'm Harsis. I like problems that cross layers.
I'm Harsis Yadav, a senior full-stack engineer based in Amsterdam. Over the past eight years, I've built systems ranging from C/C++ network software at Arista and HPE to multi-tenant SaaS and AI products using PostgreSQL, Python, TypeScript, SvelteKit, React, Azure, and AWS.
My work sits where product delivery meets systems engineering: secure data models, reliable APIs, usable interfaces, measurable performance, and production operations. I'm most useful when a problem crosses several layers and needs one engineer to understand the complete system.
Outside work, I write about engineering, experiment with AI and graphics, travel, and publish technical videos.

Off the clock
The less serious part
My job titles have ranged from Software Engineer I, II, III… to levels so confusing they'd make the Romans proud.
These photos are from "mandatory fun" trips my wife plans around the world. Left to my own devices, I'd be exploring ancient ruins in Skyrim instead. Click a photo to send it flying.
I also make videos about practical engineering on YouTube.
