beautiful systems that actually ship.

Primarily focused on

A few years of shipping, settled into three tracks that sharpen each other every day.

2+ years

Agents, guardrails, evals — LLM systems that behave in production instead of demos.

manual work erased by agent workflows I shipped

I'm an open book. here's the unfiltered timeline.

2023

Intern at Cloudbloom

Started shipping React components and squashing 30+ defects before anyone trusted me with prod. ACM ICPC Regional Finalist the same year — sleep was optional.

2024

Promoted. Graduated. Repeated.

B.Tech from IIIT Dharwad. Promoted to Software Developer after leading frontend delivery. Built an LMS serving 1,000+ concurrent users. Also taught DSA to 100+ students weekly at GeeksforGeeks.

2025

Senior Engineer at Stride.AI

Now I design LLM-agent workflows end to end — orchestration, tools, product surface. 20+ features owned, API layer scaled to 10K+ requests/day, founders on speed dial.

now

Building at midnight

Captar, Baelys, PhoneClaw, a vector DB from scratch in Elixir, a terminal browser in Go. Some people doomscroll. I ship side projects.

Selected Projects worth a look

01

01 — Runtime control for LLM applications

Captar↗

A guardrail layer that wraps the OpenAI client — per-session budget reservations, tool allowlists, execution policy. No proxy, keys never leave the host app. Span-first tracing with violation capture and eval-ready dataset export.

  • TypeScript
  • Next.js
  • PostgreSQL
  • OpenAI API
02

02 — Multi-model AI image editor

Baelys↗

20+ LoRA style-transfer models, AI background removal, and a canvas-based multi-layer editor. Launched on Product Hunt, monetized with tiered subscriptions, and publicly praised by Vercel's CEO.

  • Next.js
  • Node.js
  • LoRA
  • Canvas
03

03 — Phone automation, fully local

PhoneClaw↗

End-to-end Android automation inspired by OpenClaw — an agent that drives your phone, running entirely on-device. No cloud, no leaks, just a phone doing what you tell it.

  • TypeScript
  • Android
  • Agents
04

04 — A vector database from scratch

elix-db↗

Custom vector DB built in Elixir to explore indexing architectures — HNSW, IVFFlat — from first principles. Because the best way to understand a database is to build one.

  • Elixir
  • HNSW
  • IVFFlat
05

05 — A browser that lives in your terminal

Drowser↗

Terminal-based browser engineered in Go, driving Brave in headless mode. The web, rendered where developers actually live.

  • Go
  • Headless
  • CLI

AI does not ship.
It does the other 80%

Using AI across the daily workflow for faster execution, better decisions, and shipping real-world products.

01orchestration

LLM Agents & Tools

Multi-step agent workflows with tool calling, wired into real product surfaces — not notebook demos.

02guardrails

Runtime Control

Budget reservations, tool allowlists, execution policy. The keys stay inside the app, always.

03evals

Traces & Scoring

Span-first tracing, violation capture, weighted rubrics — regressions caught before users find them.

04models

LoRA & RAG

20+ style-transfer LoRAs running in production, retrieval only where it actually earns its keep.

05daily kit

Claude · Cursor · GPT

Pair programming with agents, PR review loops, MCP servers sharing context in one loop.
