Striver, you’ve spent so long balancing Google, a startup, and content creation, I’m surprised you haven’t hired a stunt double to take tweeted breaks for you—maybe even a bot to survive that 13-hour grind without turning into code yourself!

Successfully transitioned from a high-pressure engineering role at Google to full-time founder of takeUforward, growing the platform to over 1 million users and 800K+ YouTube subscribers, while sharing candid personal battles that inspire millions.

To empower and educate aspiring engineers by simplifying complex technical concepts, fostering a community of learners eager to advance their careers and build innovative solutions.

Believes in the power of persistence, lifelong learning, and balancing ambition with personal well-being. Holds that clear communication and honest storytelling can inspire and guide others through challenges and growth.

Relentless work ethic paired with a rare ability to distill complex technical issues into easily digestible content. His authentic storytelling builds trust and deep engagement with a large learner community.

Tends to push himself to the brink, risking burnout by balancing intense work hours with entrepreneurial goals, and sometimes under-prioritizing personal health and social connections.

Leverage X’s features like Spaces and Twitter Threads more aggressively to boost live interaction and detailed explanations. Engage with the community through Q&A sessions and polls to deepen connection and amplify reach.

Fun fact: Despite a grueling 13–14 hour daily grind juggling Google engineering and building takeUforward, Striver battled and overcame serious health challenges, including a neck tumor and tuberculosis, proving grit goes beyond code.

After more than 5.5 years of working in the industry, it’s time! The last 3.5 years at Google have been nothing short of incredible. As an engineer, I’ve learned and grown in ways I never imagined. But more than just code, I silently observed: how product managers led, how leaders made decisions, how great products were built. And in that silence, I learned. I evolved. Not just as an engineer, but as someone quietly preparing to build something of their own. That “something” is @takeUforward_ , which started as a passion and now touches nearly 1 million learners. And today, I’ve decided — it’s time to go all in. I’m calling it a day at Google. Where next? I’ll be taking up TUF full time (Engineering, Content, and Growth). Why now? Because life gave me two roads, and I had to choose one. I won’t be putting out any video around this. I’ve never been great at that type of content. The next video you see from me will be on YouTube, teaching System Design — something I’ve longed to do but never had the time for. The last 5 years have been intense: 13–14 hours almost every single day. Juggling a full-time job, content creation, and building a startup from scratch. In the process, I’ve let my health slip, distanced myself from people who matter, and ignored the small joys that make life worth living. Now, as I step into the next phase, on the other side of my 20s, I want to reclaim some of that balance. I still want to grind, but not at the cost of my body, my people, or my peace. I’m at a stage in life where two roads lie ahead, like many of you will face one day. I’ve chosen the predictable one, just like most of you do at every stage of life: to build what’s already working, to double down on what gives me financial stability, freedom, longevity, and above all, allows me to spend each day doing what I love: engineering and teaching. I leave Google with nothing but gratitude in my heart. For the people I met. For the culture I thrived in. For everything it taught me. I will always look back at this chapter with a smile. PS: My last working day will be in a couple of weeks, feel free to say a hi always :) #striver #google

First bad experience in Bangalore. Booked this Uber @Uber_India the estimated journey time was 1.5 hours. For the first 30 minutes, the driver constantly kept talking over his phone on a loudspeaker. I and my friend, got some headache after a while, and asked him politely to
