I'm almost at the half way through the podcast. While Dr. K's Engineering philosophy and approach is a very well-known wonder, I'm genuinely impressed by Arnav's impromptu questions and comments from his personal experience. I can see Arnav's improvement as an interviewer from the first episode, this is quite commendable. Great work Scaler team!
I usually don't play videos > 10-15 mins but chose to play this one just because Dr K was in it. And I'm glad that I opened it. Two hours passed like so quick. Changed my entire perspective on how I think in terms of designing my systems. Its all about first principles from now onwards.
Being stuck in WFH culture since about last 2 years and not being able to get insights of real engineering culture. These podcasts have been proving boon for tech community(who all are actually hungry)
The depth to which this podcast went could have been only possible because of the interviewer's knowledge and questions, Great stuff Arnav. This podcast is gold. The last 30 mins gave me value worth 10 Sys Des courses.
Amazing podcast, learned a lot ❤ keep doing this kind of podcast. Both Arnav and Kailash are really deep into their stuff, which is possible all because of curiosity.🎉
Things that stuck with me from this interview: - A: How can a 30 people tech team build a company as large as Zerodha? Dr. K: It's less about technical skills but how closely people gel together, and have fun while building things, technical skills come later. My thoughts: Trust on team mates is the key predictor to success. - Dr. K: We can't break down creative functions into units, so it doesn't make sense to me when someone says building something takes 6 human units. My thoughts: Companies should focus on having lean / efficient processes, head count is a weak predictor of success. Examples quoted whatsapp, zerodha. - There is no tech-enabled business anymore, now all business are or have to be tech businesses. - Go (language) was pretty helpful in blitzscaling Zerodha (low latency, high throughput)
Kailash Nadh sir is very unique. He is inspirational, wondered, and great philosophist. Countless things we can learn from him. I came to know him from the very unique and great solution for large newsletters and mailing service he made - ListMonk. Pranam sir. ❤🙏
Absolute gold. @arnav: Asking the right questions is an art and you nailed it really well. And, the way Dr K expounded upon the concepts was mind-blowing. Thank for hosting this. This was a great learning opportunity.
awesome podcast. I am not a developer, but i like postgresql so much that given i was not able to contribute to postgresql as a developer, i try to provide support on slack. In the beginning i had this thing around what would a community of 20k people think about my opinion on a problem, but the postgresql community is so awesome where everyone is able to give an opinion. That way, if the solution is not great, someone then jumps in to update the answer with a more correct version. That was the best way to get involved with the community with my hours of support with whatever i know or can discover and learn more to help.
He and his team has literally built the product from scratch. Also he has managed all other tools/software needed for business process also inhouse thereby saving millions for the organization. I hope he has enough equity in the company to make him also billionaire :)
Pls make a video with 2 proffesionals with pure Backend and Pure Frontend expertise giving knowledge specifically on Backend vs frontend job life and worklife discussing on the scope and impacts etc in these two fields.
I believe this man is the founder of cv maker. Warning to anyone who is duped into paying a small fee for a cv template, you’ll be charged unknowingly every month £15 and when you try to cancel they demand more money from you.
Thanks for this video. You can see the passion when he talk about his pet projects. Biggest take way is FOSS and Best programmers in this world are the self-taught programmers.
Really inspiring content, easily the best podcast style deep tech conversation I've seen anyone anyone doing in this country. This has to become more common. These podcasts also contribute in enabling the engineering culture. Great work.
Awesome podcast 👍🏼 Kailash is an inspiration 🙂 and Arnav himself is a genius guy and a host.. asking and highlighting important topics for the techies. Great work Scaler 🤗
Such a beautiful content here! Keep it up my friend! You're allowed to scream, you're allowed to cry, but don't give up! Keep going! You are great with what are you doing! It deserves all success around and I don't forget to give my full support for you!......
I feel so validated when he said he started with writing python scripts and doing automation 😍. Anyways, such a brilliant conversation you guys had, learned a lot. Thanks Scaler for posting this 🙏❤️
This podcast is GOLD. Thank you so much Dr. Kailash and Arnav for sharing your knowledge and inspiring us engineers to think of problems from first principles. I'm truly inspired by your views on Open Source Software contribution and having that itch to tinker and build solutions that solve real life problems. I now have a deeper understanding of why people contribute to open source project and the fulfillment they get from it. Thanks #ScalerPod team. Keep up the good work!
The phrase most by Dr. K and the biggest takeaway from the interview "First Principles" lovely interview so pleased to know about the thinking process of the mind behind the tech behind the markets 👍
1:14:00, A big issue with big tech companies is they want to be efficient and the typical leet code / design interviews are currently the most efficient way to hire someone. Although efficient, it isn't the most accurate. I have seen people who ace the typical interview but daily performance is much weaker comparing to people who did well on the interview. Trial week isn't something new. In fact it is the go to approach in many non-tech industries like culinary, electrician, renovation, and etc. Yes it is a longer approach but it allows the team to work with the candidate and therefore provide a better view of the candidate. With the massive redundancy layoffs, it may be a signal for companies to start adopting this "new" way of interviewing, or at least something similar.
How the open source culture is endured by the capitalists in US and if the culture has just faded out in India or US as well, now that the business teams have caught up with tech unicorn businesses! How would that effect the average pay scale of Engineers across different stages of product development and allow them to try something new, or cater resources for something new, when open source scales up and comes as a cheaper and easier alternative!? And the concept of one has to keep growing once they start, is the core pillar of capitalism, to sell more we need to pump more money or keep printing more money for that reason. The ultimate application of tech or full scale adaptation would result in cost reduction across the value chain of consumption economy and that should bring some kind of deflation? Like the current state of Japan..?
Last question should have been - what is the first principle ? 😉 Other than that, loved the deep dive into tech stacks and CI/CD. You got a subscriber !
management people will always see tech as enablers and something that they can always replace. Sad truth. Zerodha is an exception. I wonder how is the payscale for tech team members at zerodha which is so small. Nithin kamath and hiswife and nikhil kamath each take home 100 cr salary per year . What does the tech people take home ?

Thank you 😇
I'm already hooked to the calmness of hearing Kailash speak, and the depth of knowledge! Can't wait!
This series would have been incomplete without Kailash Nadh. Thanks for bringing him.
I usually don't play videos > 10-15 mins but chose to play this one just because Dr K was in it. And I'm glad that I opened it. Two hours passed like so quick. Changed my entire perspective on how I think in terms of designing my systems. Its all about first principles from now onwards.

Highly underrated guy
He is the man behind Zerodha’s success!!
Being stuck in WFH culture since about last 2 years and not being able to get insights of real engineering culture.

@@SCALER right
Kailash Nadh is an inspiration. He know how to solve a problem. Too good.
Amazing podcast, learned a lot ❤ keep doing this kind of podcast. Both Arnav and Kailash are really deep into their stuff, which is possible all because of curiosity.🎉
Didn't realize that 2 hours went by. It is difficult to be simple these days!
Man such folks should teach us languages, frameworks, projects, and all. He should be ytuber.
Nice to know elliot from Mr.Robot is now CTO of Zerodha
😂😂😂
By far Scaler has delivered a GOLD !!
Dr. K - GOAT
Things that stuck with me from this interview:

- There is no tech-enabled business anymore, now all business are or have to be tech businesses.
- Go (language) was pretty helpful in blitzscaling Zerodha (low latency, high throughput)
Can't wait!
What a beautiful podcast, Kailash’s voice and pace is so soothing. And his knowledge base is so vast!
I have been inspired from K and always look forward to understand his perspective of engineering. There are lot more to learn from him.
Big fan of hiswork from olam to what he is doing with Zerodha.
Kailash what a brilliant engineer and the quality of questions Arnab ask 👏🔥
Kailash Nadh sir is very unique. He is inspirational, wondered, and great philosophist. Countless things we can learn from him. I came to know him from the very unique and great solution for large newsletters and mailing service he made - ListMonk. Pranam sir. ❤🙏
Kailash Nadh really drove the idea of building from scratch & getting into the rabbit hole. Inspiring stuff, thanks a lot for this Arnav & Scaler. ❤
Crazy man, the best CTO podcast i have seen♥️
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
Absolutely Gold, must watch for hungry techies. Great work Arnav, and Kailash's story is really impressive.
Absolute gold.
@arnav: Asking the right questions is an art and you nailed it really well.
And, the way Dr K expounded upon the concepts was mind-blowing.
Thank for hosting this.

wow what a person humble clarity on thought great long live
I just want to say, huge shoutout to the interviewer for asking such in depth and well researched questions
In Sales. But listening to K is subscribing to a masterclass
He and his team has literally built the product from scratch. Also he has managed all other tools/software needed for business process also inhouse thereby saving millions for the organization. I hope he has enough equity in the company to make him also billionaire :)
Pls make a video with 2 proffesionals with pure Backend and Pure Frontend expertise giving knowledge specifically on Backend vs frontend job life and worklife discussing on the scope and impacts etc in these two fields.
He is the man behind Zerodha's success
its a delight to hear Kailash talk and its a pain when the hosts talk
Awesome, kailash is an inspiration!! Very insightful podcast!
currently working on Db design and System Design for my project
Very Grateful for this podcast ...
I've watched 2+ scaler pods of CTOs and one common thing they all say including Arnav is learning by building.
Kind of stuff we need. Kudos to scaler and Arnav
Thanks! Glad this was helpful! 😃

Thank you so much! Super glad to hear that! 🙌🏼
Thanks a lot. Great learning.
Just wish I could think for myself and create architecture like Kailash does. Great Talk.
Great podcast

Beautiful Pod! Absolutely loved how they managed to talk about most of the aspects of software development.
Such a wonderful podcast. Enjoyed throughly. So many take aways.
Thanks! Keep an eye out for more such videos! 😃
Kaafie Lit 🔥🔥
Kudos to team Sacler and Arnav.
Thanks a ton!😊
Superb insights ,well researched questions great time listinging the conv for a techie like me.
Thanks! Keep an eye out for more such videos! 😃
Don't no how many people fell into angular js framework and regretted then saved by vue /react.
Sometimes re-inventing the wheel is a great way to move forward blocks.
Hey Why are you not making a playlist of it. It will be easy to share for scalar POD talks.

the chad tEcHbRo Dr. Kailash:
"Thanks for providing me with an avenue to vent"
super nice job video editor 😭
Super insightful !
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
great Convo, got lot of ideas and information.
Kailash sir can be a good teacher perhaps
There should be some way to work with such companies and people's even if it is for free you will get so much to learn
Contribute to Dr. K's open source projects no? That's the best way to work with him :)
Very informative 👍
this guys speaks awesome . can relate waht he is telling, we alos migrating clikhouse some part of ORcle , it works as well.
This is my third time watching this POD
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
I loved the chat. Amazing video.
That's awesome! Thanks! 😄
How the open source culture is endured by the capitalists in US and if the culture has just faded out in India or US as well, now that the business teams have caught up with tech unicorn businesses! How would that effect the average pay scale of Engineers across different stages of product development and allow them to try something new, or cater resources for something new, when open source scales up and comes as a cheaper and easier alternative!?
And the concept of one has to keep growing once they start, is the core pillar of capitalism, to sell more we need to pump more money or keep printing more money for that reason. The ultimate application of tech or full scale adaptation would result in cost reduction across the value chain of consumption economy and that should bring some kind of deflation?
Like the current state of Japan..?
Loved it.
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
where else can i find out podcast where folks are genuinely talk about application development like K does here?
Interviewer struggling to come to a question , what we hear more are um , like , you know ,just ,like ,like ...but answers are Cristal clear
Insightful and inspiring! Did not realise I spent more than 2 full hours watching this until now!
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏼
Last question should have been - what is the first principle ? 😉
Other than that, loved the deep dive into tech stacks and CI/CD. You got a subscriber !
Finally!
Good-One, Key Points 2:00:23.
Interviewer : Please stop saying like like like .....
Kailash is an ideal engineer everyone should look upto
Respect!! 🫡
can u pls invite rushbh mehta also on ua podcast? One of most FOSS spreader built frappe and erpnext
at one point you realise lots of this architecture selling stuff are consultants or consulting business being insecure about themselves
good content .
It's a boon for the self-traders, it doesn't affect the mood, it's just that the returns are so low
Plz bring Arpit Bhayani in future.
Next episode is Arpit :)
Great Podcast
Thanks! Keep an eye out for more such videos! 😃
Awesome
Was there no intro or personal questions
What is the website which Arnav built for share time?
management people will always see tech as enablers and something that they can always replace. Sad truth. Zerodha is an exception. I wonder how is the payscale for tech team members at zerodha which is so small. Nithin kamath and hiswife and nikhil kamath each take home 100 cr salary per year . What does the tech people take home ?
Please invite Ajeeth Narayanan(CTO) from licious
Hi, we have duly made a note of your suggestion and it will be passed on to our relevant teams. Thank you! 😊
30 passionate people will beat 1000 not passionate people in the company.
Woah
Flutter + Golang ❤❤
Good
