Harshit is a Senior Community Programs Manager at MongoDB.

Fun fact: "I got famous for making developers around the world have Butter Chicken, wherever we met. This eventually led to me getting the honorary title of CEO, Butter Chicken Squad. We also have an official logo and t-shirts for our squad!"

Pet peeve: "Long unstructured docs! Well-formatted sheets are the way to go!"
