Dhruv Mishra - Software Engineer at Microsoft

Hey, I'm Dhruv 👋

I'm a Software Engineer at Microsoft working across AI-forward software engineering and production systems that need to be fast, reliable, and boring in production.

I like building practical AI tools, high-performance product experiences, and reliable infrastructure. Recent Microsoft proof points include 7 billion+ daily backend hits, $240K/year verified savings, and a 99% faster critical loading path.

I work across TypeScript, Python, C#, C++, Kotlin, and Java. My work ranges from AI agents and web systems to platform engineering, distributed systems, and infrastructure that quietly does its job well.

I'm an active open source contributor and love collaborating on work that pushes boundaries. Outside code, I'm into strength training, PC overclocking, chess, and following the latest in AI systems and longevity research.

I graduated with Honors in CSAM from IIIT Delhi, and spend time honing my skills through competitive programming.
