Hrushikesh Vaidya

Hi, I'm Hrushikesh, a Software Engineer at Bloomberg in the Network API & Communications team. I wrote my first Python program in December 2019, and since then I've been in love with learning more about computer science and programming every day.

At Bloomberg, I help build network management tools used by Bloomberg's Network Engineers to build and manage one of the largest private networks in the world.

In my free time, I'm currently working on a spreadsheet-based budgeting app, a few other open source projects of my own, and contributing to Django from time to time.

I'm also a tennis player and amateur powerlifter ️🏋🏻‍♂️
