CSE undergrad at IIT Jodhpur, part of the DevlUp Labs Junior Core Team. Started coding in class 11 out of curiosity - built small games, broke things, fixed them. Somewhere along the way that turned into a genuine interest in how systems are designed at a deeper level.

These days I find myself drawn to problems around search, distributed systems, and backend infrastructure. Less "what can I build" and more "how should this actually work."

• Semantic Search & Vector Retrieval
• Distributed Systems - P2P, replication, consensus
• AI / ML - embeddings, multi-modal retrieval, LLM tooling
• Systems Programming - memory, performance, correct-by-construction design
• Data Structures - not just using them, understanding why

Jan 2026 - Ongoing Node.js Express React PostgreSQL JWT MUI Vite Docker

Full-stack room allocation platform for IIT Jodhpur - buildings, rooms, equipment, and booking policies across four roles (Admin / Staff / Faculty / Student).

• JWT auth, bcrypt, account lockout, rate limiting
• RBAC with per-resource granular permissions, multi-tier approval workflow
• Conflict detection, configurable policies per role, audit logging

Jun 2025 - Dec 2025 Python Kademlia DHT P2P Sentence Transformers Nomic LLM SQLite WebRTC

Search engine that finds files by meaning, not filename - text, images, PDFs - with no central server. Uses hierarchical clustering + Kademlia DHT for fully distributed indexing and retrieval.

Oct 2025 - Nov 2025 C++ HashMap LRU Min-Heap Trie Bloom Filter DAG CLI

Redis-style in-memory store built from scratch. O(1) ops, TTL expiry, Trie prefix search, Bloom filter for negative lookups, DAG-based cascade deletes.

Dec 2024 - Apr 2025 React GraphQL PostgreSQL Docker Nginx

Performance work on a relationship visualization platform - lazy loading, reduced re-renders, better responsiveness on complex tree views.

Mar 2025 - Apr 2025

Three games in C - Dragon's Egg, Snitch Escape, Dynamic Maze. AI enemies, collision detection, pathfinding, dynamic maze generation. Good excuse to care about every byte.

• Getting into open source - finding my footing, picking up good habits
• Going deeper into ML - moved past the surface stuff, now into the parts that actually get interesting
• Systems design at scale - how things hold up when they really shouldn't have to

I care about the layer beneath the layer - what does the index actually look like, why this data structure and not that one, where does the request go when things break. That's usually where the interesting decisions are.

P.S. - I also speak German, play guitar, and learned Kathak. Structured systems everywhere.
