Philosophy

Systems Thinking

My approach to engineering is rooted in understanding systems holistically—from the kernel to the cloud.

Layered Abstraction

Understanding systems from low-level networking (Linux TC, TCP/IP) to high-level orchestration (Kubernetes, service mesh).

Distributed First

Designing for failure, partition tolerance, and eventual consistency. Real-world systems are distributed—embrace it.

Measure, Don't Guess

Prometheus metrics, profiling, and observability before optimization. Data-driven decisions over intuition-based changes.

Theory Meets Practice

Research simulations validated on real testbeds. Academic rigor combined with production engineering pragmatism.

Journey

Experience Timeline

2026

Graduation

B.Tech Computer Science & Engineering

Expected graduation from IIIT Guwahati. Ready for roles in Systems Engineering, Backend Infrastructure, or Research.

Nov 2025~90% Cache Hit

MUCEDS (UAV Research)

Hierarchical RL & LSTM

Developed a cost-efficient UAV deployment scheme for Vehicular Edge Networks. Integrated SUMO traffic simulation with PyTorch RL agents to optimize fleet positioning, achieving ~90% Cache Hit Ratio.

Oct 202599.77% F1-Score

LOKI Voice Assistant

Hybrid NLU Engine

Engineered a local-first voice assistant. Achieved 99.77% NER F1-score using a dual-layer architecture: fast-path embeddings for latency (<60ms) and local LLM fallback for semantic complexity.

Aug 202598.3% Speedup

GRIG Technologies

Back End Developer Intern (Jun '24 - Aug '25)

Concluded a year-long internship. Engineered certificate generation systems (98.3% speedup) and orchestrated containerized microservices on Kubernetes. Built scalable RESTful APIs with Flask/FastAPI.

Jun 2025Go Concurrency

TerraQuest

Distributed Geo-Gaming Engine

Built a high-concurrency Go backend processing 81,000+ geographical points. Implemented a worker-pool data pipeline and real-time WebSocket state synchronization for multiplayer lobbies.

Apr 2025Recursive Logic

Portal Gambit

Non-Euclidean Chess Engine

Designed a custom chess engine extending chess.js to support portal traversal. Architected a real-time system using Firebase Atomic Transactions and PeerJS for P2P voice communication.

Mar 2025Virtual Testbed

Fog Computing Testbed

GVMP Strategy Validation

Constructed a 4-tier distributed Fog testbed using Docker and Linux Traffic Control (tc). Validated the Gateway Validation Module Placement strategy, reducing network usage by 95% vs Edge-Ward.

Feb 2024Google Cloud

Pilgrim AI

Mental Health Architecture

Developed a cross-platform Flutter application backed by Google Vertex AI (PaLM 2). Implemented context-aware session management on Google App Engine for empathetic conversational agents.
