More about Saketh Varma

I'm Saketh from Hyderabad, I'm an avid Photographer, Artist, Outdoor enthusiast and also loves to code. I have close to 6 years of professional experiences as a Frontend/Fullstack engineer. I've built features which are used by millions of users and also scaled up web applications for startups. I had been on a 4 month break till April this year, and started job hunt recently.
I've always wanted to contribute for the planet, preferably in a large scale. I had choose Bachelors in Electronics hoping to make a incredibly cheap solar panels. But it didn't work out for whatever reasons, and I had gotten into my first job. Working there for 3 years, I felt like I need to give another attempt at sustainability. I took a leap and worked for a company which worked on the efficiency of power consumption. Basically, there are two parts to sustainability. One is to first make the energy consumption as efficient as possible, and the second part is to then supply green energy into those efficient systems. Working on the efficiency is crucial, if not more important than the greener energy sources, and the company worked on fixing it first and then moving to greener sources. I loved the impact it has made on the energy bills and co2 saved. With my contributions, I can say that I've carbon offset atleast 100 people life long emissions. That's incredibly fulfilling. For few growth reasons, I quit the company and now looking out for new roles. Preferably in green space, but also where I can really grow as a professional.
