I'm writing this because I don't know what else to do.
This is Neha. I am a software engineer. I have been coding for years, contributing to open source, building autonomous AI agents, and shipping production code into frameworks that are used by thousands of companies. But today I see an empty bank account and a calendar that tells me I have less than two weeks to figure something out.
This is not a tale of woe. It’s a job application, but not the sort you are used to.
What I’ve done in reality
I am not a CS graduate from a renowned university. I don’t have an FAANG internship on my CV. What I do have is a trail of pull requests merged that speak for themselves.
