Senior Software Engineer
I build systems that outlast the hype cycle.
I'm Bhavna Rock — a senior developer working across full-stack products, developer tooling, and open infrastructure. I write the kind of code teams still trust two years later.

I'm Bhavna Rock — a senior developer working across full-stack products, developer tooling, and open infrastructure. I write the kind of code teams still trust two years later.
I specialize in full-stack engineering, distributed systems, and developer tooling — the layers of a product that decide whether it scales gracefully or falls apart under load.
From data models to UI state, I design systems where every layer talks to the next without friction.
Queues, caches, and services that stay correct under concurrency — not just under a demo.
CLIs, CI pipelines, and internal libraries that make the whole team faster, not just me.
Tools change — but I pick them for reliability first, novelty last.
Before writing a line of code, I map constraints, users, and what "done" actually means — so we don't build the wrong thing well.
Architecture sketches, data flow, and API contracts get agreed on early, so implementation is fast and low-drama.
Short cycles, real test coverage, and visible progress — so stakeholders always know exactly where things stand.
Code that outlives me: clear READMEs, sane defaults, and no tribal knowledge locked in my head.
A selection of projects and contributions — swap in your real repos before this goes live.
[Sample projects — replace with real repo links]
End-to-end feature ownership — from spec to production, on an existing codebase or a fresh one.
A focused engagement to review, redesign, or de-risk your system architecture before it costs you more later.
Ongoing, part-time senior engineering support for teams that need depth without a full-time hire.
Pick a session, pay securely through Stripe, and land straight on my calendar — no email thread required.
45 minutes, screen-share
$150
Send me a PR or repo ahead of time — I'll walk through it live with concrete, actionable feedback.
90 minutes, screen-share
$350
A focused session on your system design — scaling risks, migration paths, and where the next failure will come from.
Half-day, async + live
$900
I join your team for a day to scope the next sprint, write the architecture doc, and unblock whatever's stuck.
Payments are processed by Stripe in test mode. Card details never touch this site — Stripe hosts the actual payment form.
I work close to the metal of a product — the parts that decide whether it's still standing after real traffic hits it. My focus sits at the intersection of full-stack delivery, distributed systems, and the developer tooling that keeps a team fast.
I care about code that's easy to read six months from now, systems that fail loudly instead of silently, and teams that ship with confidence instead of crossed fingers.

This checkout isn't wired to a live Stripe account yet. Connect a Stripe test-mode Payment Link (or Checkout Session on your backend) to accept a real card here — until then, this is a demo of the flow.
In live mode, Stripe would now confirm the charge and you'd get a calendar link by email. Connect a real Payment Link to make this happen for actual clients.
