Software engineer / London

/ Hi, I'm

Atul Ghandhi.

I build software for a living. And for fun.

Engineer at Compare the Market. Five years at AND.Digital before that (a consultancy), and through them: Lloyds, Cancer Research UK, Hargreaves Lansdown and others.

Right now I'm thinking a lot about prompt and context engineering, agent orchestration, and how fast you can ship when the two halves click.

Late-night reading

Agent loops, evals, context windows. 1am tabs that turn into 9am demos.

/ How I work

Code by hand, features by agent.

Half my week is writing code manually on high-stakes client systems. The other half is orchestrating AI agents to deliver large features and epics. I've gone deep on prompt and context engineering through courses and a lot of hands-on experimentation.

Manual craft

Real code on real client systems. Reviews, tests, type checks. The work that has to be right.

Agent orchestration

Claude pointed at full epics with the prompts and context they need. Big features land in days, not weeks.

Always experimenting

Courses, papers, late-night sessions. I want to know where models fail, not just where they work.
