👋 About Me
I’m Guruvigneshwaran, a software engineer at Intuit, where I work on building and scaling Python-based systems in real production environments. I strongly believe you shouldn’t accept something just because it sounds right. If a claim matters, I prefer to test it, break it, and understand it firsthand before believing it.

I care about helping developers understand how things actually work, not just how to make them pass tests.
And to be honest I’m not fan of pop bands and never heard of One Direction before!
