I'm Vrash (he/him). After serving as interim CTO at Checkatrade through December 2024, I now lead engineering for Checkatrade Labs - an exciting new chapter focused on driving innovation!
We're building the trusted foundation for every home in the UK. And we're hiring!

Previously I've worked at carwow, Amazon, Bankbazaar, Oracle and a few startups.

Talk to me @vrashabh or feel free to DM me on LinkedIn. I try and respond to most folks on Sunday nights.
