Backend Systems / AI Agents / Competitive Programming

I build scalable backend systems, architect AI agents, and solve leetcode hard problems. When I'm not coding, I'm usually reading about economics, following geopolitics, or staying up way too late for a great TV show. Currently engineering at Pipeline AI while pursuing a B.E. in IT at PICT, Pune.
