Priya Chakraborty cut her teeth on distributed systems at Stripe, where she spent four years building payment processing infrastructure handling millions of daily transactions. She left in 2024 to pursue her fascination with financial automation, joining Bot for Kalshi to architect the platform's core trading engine. Priya holds a BS in Computer Science from Georgia Tech and is an active open-source contributor, maintaining several Python libraries for financial data processing. Her technical writing philosophy: if a tutorial needs more than one read-through to follow, it's the writer's fault, not the reader's. She writes code in Python and Go, thinks in systems diagrams, and believes every complex concept can be explained with the right analogy.
