@Saurabh_Mouryan @3ackfire @rubrikInc @CSE_IITBombay The person I referred to in my post was my internship mentor for 3 months, not my life mentor.
Every intern is assigned a mentor. It was him for me.

Ten years ago, I landed in San Francisco as a 20-year-old kid from IIT Bombay, headed to Palo Alto to intern at @rubrikInc's Software Engineering Team.
I was earning $8,000 a month. It felt like a dream.
My mentor was an @CSE_IITBombay senior, who made me fall in love with databases and scalable backend systems. The work was exciting. The culture was electric. Rubrik went on to go public. I was one of the early interns, in 2016, before any of that happened.
But here is what that internship really gave me:
Clarity.
I realized I did not want to build my life in the Bay Area. I wanted to go back to India and build something of my own. Seeing the startup energy up close lit a fire in me that has never gone out.
When I returned in July 2016, I made a decision. My fourth year of college was not going to be just about courses. It was going to be about learning how to build a company. Entrepreneurship courses, product thinking, sales, marketing. Engineering was never my constraint. Business-building became my obsession.
"Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years." - Bill Gates
That quote hits differently when you actually live it.
When I look back at the last ten years, it feels surreal. From being an intern at Rubrik, to co-founding Cogno AI, bootstrapping it past $1 million in revenue, getting it successfully acquired, and then starting again from scratch.
Today, at @GreyLabsAI, we have raised close to Rs. 100 crores from @z47_vc and @ElevCap. We are a team of 85+. We work with more than 75 large BFSI accounts across India. We have grown more than 3x year on year.
None of this was obvious. None of it was guaranteed.
But it all started with a summer in Palo Alto, a great mentor, and the courage to come back home and bet on myself.
If you are an intern somewhere right now, pay attention to what excites you and what does not. That signal is worth more than the stipend.
The next ten years are waiting.

@amangoeliitb @rubrikInc @CSE_IITBombay You were in IIT Bombay so you got that type of supportive mentor what if I'm not from IIT will I be able to join them? Does the mentor play a crucial role?

I was fired from Anthropic today.
I was the engineer responsible for shipping the latest dev/claude-code npm package. Wanting to improve the debugging experience for the team, I decided to include source maps in the release. This resulted in our entire internal codebase being publicly exposed including thousands of files with every agent command, all system prompts, the complete query engine, Undercover Mode, Bypass Permissions Mode, and our internal telemetry configuration.
I take full responsibility. I genuinely believed the safeguards Claude Code had built for me would be adequate and it was a serious miscalculation on my part.
My actions have unintentionally open-sourced major parts of Claude’s architecture well ahead of schedule. I apologize to the team and to Claude.
