I’m a BIPOC software engineer from Cochin, India living in Munich, Germany. I like to talk and write about technology, travel, and culture. I love sharing my experiences, giving a unique perspective based on my identity and supporting other underrepresented folks in this industry, especially those with a similar South Asian background. https://keerthanakrishnan.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-12-18 https://keerthanakrishnan.com/home daily 1.0 2022-06-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/1640627584085-4M5L82LWCFGOB933Q9ZL/unsp1.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/1640627892452-D9PVA37ZK51L5JBHMHYD/unsp2.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/1640701787474-3L8SPCBV7CTMH1HYRVT7/unSp8.jpeg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/1632946452594-SGMUF9S1NRFUUM0ASPZA/KK2.jpg Home https://keerthanakrishnan.com/portfolio daily 0.75 2025-03-05 https://keerthanakrishnan.com/portfolio/published-work monthly 0.5 2021-12-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/957ee8e1-8dc9-4e94-80e2-3439536ec042/Screenshot+2025-03-05+150326.png Creative portfolio - Published work - WEB PERFORMANCE CALENDAR Designing websites for bad performance Exploring application design for challenging performance conditions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/359784dd-ba04-41e5-b51a-6ef8137a64d3/Screenshot+from+2024-07-21+18-28-11.png Creative portfolio - Published work - WEB PERFORMANCE CALENDAR A checklist for CLS scenarios Let’s take a look at common scenarios which disrupt the visual stability of a website https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6060a0349626227bd4d547a4/1664971226748-3ISFH8LKVYRU851H4Z5H/OfferZen_Contributor+card_How+to+Ace+Your+Self-Introduction+as+a+Developer+when+Interviewing_Linkedin.png Creative portfolio - Published work - offerzen blog How to Ace Your Introduction When Interviewing Preparing for your self-introduction during your developer interview is your chance to make an excellent first impression.
