Hi, I’m Aditya Chowdhry.

I currently lead the engineering team at Probo, where we’re building India’s first large-scale Information Markets. I’ve been fortunate to help scale our platform from zero to over 250 million trades per day, navigating challenges across infrastructure, reliability, and velocity as we grew.

Previously, at Gojek, I was part of the Platform team, where I built internal systems to scaffold, deploy, and monitor services at scale, powering 600+ microservices. I led efforts on VM-to-Kubernetes migrations, infrastructure automation, and standardized developer tooling across teams.

Before that, I was at UrbanCompany, where I helped lay the foundational platform layer and built the company’s core matchmaking system.

Why Thoughtful Engineering?

I started Thoughtful Engineering to share real-world experiences from scaling both technology and teams—the kind of insights I wish I had access to earlier in my journey. Whether it’s handling traffic spikes or building a culture of quality and speed, this blog is about the lessons learned in the trenches.

If you’re an engineer, tech lead, or just someone curious about the how behind reliable systems and high-performing teams, you’ll feel right at home here.
