The short biography

Arohan Mishra

I build software and data systems, currently while completing a Master of Information Technology at Monash University.

I previously worked as a Data Engineer at IBM and as a research intern at Deakin University. My professional interests live around backend engineering, data engineering, AI, cloud, distributed systems, and full-stack product development.

Outside work, I run marathons, train for triathlon, analyse playlists beyond reasonable limits, watch films with a notebook nearby, and occasionally point a camera at the night sky.
