About

I love dealing with the challenges of making complex systems simple to work with and scale. Coding has been in my life for better or for worse since I was 12, evolving from JavaScript pet projects to TypeScript applications to microservices in Go, Python and Rust. Fast forward to now and I have had the chance to do this for a living in environments of all sizes, from early stage startup to big tech. I have largely been working in the cloud, web and mobile realms but am always curious about learning new things! Currently I’m building AI-powered developer tools for MongoDB; previously I was studying Computer Science at Princeton University. See more on on my GitHub (github.com/gagik) and my website (gagik.co).

  • Founder, President at Hoagie Club
    Jun 2020 - May 2022 · 2 yrs

    Hoagie is an online platform to unify all of Princeton's student applications under one system. It took up a dominant place on campus after the launch of Hoagie Mail which is responsible for essentially all of digital communications for student organizations, delivering thousands of emails to students a month. Later launched Hoagie Digest, a bullet-in board for student sales and other announcements, gaining thousands of posts in a couple months. Hoagie's continues to be a big part of campus life even since my graduation, becoming a new norm and getting new features. As its founder and president, I was responsible for organizing its teams, shaping product, and getting things out to the masses.
