Open request: looking for smart coders & data architect/engineers

Hey folks! GV is such an amazing community of super smart people. I hope this will be of help in my professional career. In selling generally you highlight the most important things first. This is not an attempt to sell but to build a long term relationship. Hence more of a story telling approach. Please excuse if you find this uncomfortable.

Let's start. A little about me: sharp guy, with intellect and amazing pedigree, 6yrs exp. Great in strategy, business operations, finance. Trying to learn tech since last 4 yrs. Personally, hard to work with in a team, not a people pleaser but committed and loyal. Girls please excuse (find it more comfortable working with guys, not trying to discriminate just my preference)

Okay so what i have done. Actions speak larger than words. Over the last 4 yrs I have developed deep understanding of tech world. I believe tech can be a great enabler in transformation of every business process today. So much that i am in an IT department today. i have built understanding of the high level systems, architecture, models, algos etc. But I can code properly. I am very bad at it.

So what i want to do now. There are bunch of ideas that i want to try and build. But just stuck because i don't have the full stack development skills. I have made peace with coding inability because i can be good at every skill. Sharing these ideas openly for folks to copy and build. Ideas are just 10% of the work done and probably none novel but i still want to build for various reasons. In most cases, I am not looking to make money or business to build but more to transform current processes. Eg. Real estate - why is there no portal where tenants/buyers can rate landlords/sellers and provide feedback about them. Bom and blr is such a hot market. Brokerage is an unorganised market which nobroker is trying to solve. Energy - 24hrs electricity cost is 5-6rs as per government tenders but industries buy it at 10-12/unit. Rest in comments.

Hi, can we connect? Though I'm a fresher with 1yoe in Java and Backend, I'm interested in learning system design and learning frontend for building something similar.

Continue part 2 Finance - all your money is invested in stock market and zerodha doesn't have a single graph that shows you your historical portfolio performance on a daily basis. And give enough firepower to investor to risk return analysis. Where is index comparison, portfolio risk, beta, alpha, sharpe. All very easy to calculate. I can go on and on.
So what I am hoping from this community. Also putting this at the end so that people who are making the effort to first thank people reading this in entirety.
Some start folks who may be equally quirky. But driven by passion, committed and values driven not money or fame. I have learnt one thing I can't change the world alone even my own world. But if a dozen things fall in place then change will come. I will try to be in one of those dozen things who are helping bring a positive change. If nothing, use my intellect to some good use. Or just focus on building something good and hope the universe will support.

I look forward to working on some good problems because they deserve innovative thinking and a solution and not be driven by money or power or fame..And if you don't like this post, sorry freedom of speech is still there on GV
