# Dhruv Paliwal
Microsoft engineer helping teams build agent-driven software factories.

## About

Dhruv Paliwal helps developers build better software at Microsoft. He focuses on taking raw ideas and turning them into working applications, with a specific interest in how AI changes the way we write code.

His workshops center on the agentic software development lifecycle. He teaches teams how to move past simple AI assistance, showing them how to use tools like GitHub Copilot to automate planning, security, and testing.

When he steps away from his keyboard, you can find him reading science fiction and history, or testing out new recipes in the kitchen.
