Poorvith Gowda
Software Engineer
From early-stage startup to solo-building AI platforms, I thrive where complex problems meet clean code. Fascinated by data, AI, and building products that solve real-world problems.
About Me
I'm a full-stack engineer who builds end-to-end products—backend systems, data pipelines, and the interfaces people actually use. I care about clean code and real-world impact.
Currently at Beyond EPiC, a University of Melbourne-backed startup, where I build sustainability tools that help measure environmental impact in buildings.
Before this: enterprise systems at Accenture and health-tech platforms.
