About
CS undergraduate at BITS Pilani (CGPA 8.9/10) who ships production code in unfamiliar, ambiguous codebases: 6 merged PRs in kubernetes/kubernetes, 5 merged PRs in CNCF kubernetes-sigs/kro including feature design-and-implementation (KREP-10), and 2 merged PRs shipped at an early-stage AI infrastructure startup (railgrid) within days of cold outreach. Experienced in distributed systems, API/CRD design, and real-time full-stack architectures. Explore my projects.
Proof of Work
I enjoy building projects with a product mindset. Here are a few of myfavorites.
Architected a full-stack trading platform supporting 10+ asset classes with real-time WebSocket feeds, achieving sub-200ms order execution latency across 500+ daily transactions. Spearheaded a responsive multi-chart dashboard handling 5+ simultaneous live chart instances with full MT5-terminal feature parity.
6 merged PRs in core Kubernetes across SIG Scheduling and SIG Apps, fixing client-go data races, declarative validation, apiserver storage, and pod eviction logic.
Fixed a concurrent data race in client-go reflector state, improving stability across high-throughput informer watches.
Refactored PodSpec validation logic to modern declarative cel validation schemas in apiserver.
Resolved a edge-case state bug in ServiceAccount storage representation in kube-apiserver.
Diagnosed and resolved premature pod eviction caused by race conditions in NoExecuteTaintManager after 3 maintainer review rounds.
CNCF Kubernetes SIG project — Kube Resource Orchestrator. 5 merged PRs including end-to-end design and implementation of KREP-10.
Added scope field (Namespaced|Cluster) to ResourceGraphDefinition.spec.schema, enabling cluster-scoped instance CRDs with full controller reconciliation.
Authored KREP design document for cluster-scoped instance CRD support, accepted after review by core maintainers.
Implemented early fail-fast validation for CRD group/version/kind declarations during synthesis.
Early-stage AI infrastructure startup. Cold-reached team and shipped 2 merged PRs within days of first contact.
Audited codebase, identified dead broker-client code with hardcoded stubs, and executed cleanup.
Built comprehensive e2e test suite validating provider integration pipelines under real workload conditions.

Rust and Go cloud/security ecosystems. 4 merged PRs across kube-rs, Hyperledger Fabric-CA, and Hyperledger Identus.
Added no_spec derive attribute for CustomResourceDefinition synthesis in Rust.
Fixed command detection when global flags precede subcommands in CLI invocation.
I like building things
During my time in university, I attended 2+ hackathons. People from around the country would come together and build incredible things in 2-3 days. It was eye-opening to see the endless possibilities brought to life by a group of motivated and passionate individuals.

100x School & Superteam India Solana Hackathon
India — 2nd Place of 200+ Teams
Secured 2nd place out of 200+ nationwide participants by delivering a functional Solana blockchain product under a 48-hour deadline. Recognised by Superteam India, the leading Solana builder community.

CTF Competition — IIT Guwahati Cyber Security Programme
India — Top 5 of 80+ Participants
Ranked top 5 out of 80+ participants by cracking advanced challenges in cryptography, network security, and binary exploitation under strict time constraints.
