## About

Rajas Telang is a software engineer who has built patient-booking functionality end to end as a solo engineer. Rajas works across the full product stack, connecting user-facing booking workflows with payment processing and the operational needs of a production system. His strengths include pragmatic technical decision-making, implementation ownership, and troubleshooting real-world edge cases. In building the patient-booking experience, Rajas integrated Square for payments and made a practical choice to use that platform for the product’s needs. He also put proactive logging in place to support production debugging while working independently. Payment retry scenarios provided concrete lessons in handling operational edge cases, particularly because the system involved real financial transactions.
