Bhavesh Songara

Software Engineer


I started coding at 16 during lockdown. Taught myself everything from the internet. No CS degree, no bootcamp.

Got my first freelance gig at 17, first full-time job at 18. Since then I have been the first engineer at two startups, building products used by 80,000+ people. What's the best we can serve to the customer? How can we give the best experience? That's all that goes into my mind, and that's what I love building for.

Currently I am an engineer at Clipboard (YC W17), a $1.3B healthcare staffing marketplace. 9M+ shifts covered. 6.5K communities. Profitable.
