Systems Architect • Engineering Leader • Open Source Maintainer

I build systems that prioritize correctness, clarity, and long-term maintainability.

I’m a systems architect and engineering leader with experience across founding roles, enterprise platforms, and open-source development. My work focuses on system design, execution strategy, and practical automation, with a strong bias toward decisions that age well.

I’m an IIT Jodhpur alumnus (M.Tech in Artificial Intelligence) and currently pursuing a PhD in Theoretical Computer Science. This background shapes how I think about correctness, complexity, and long-term trade-offs—but my work remains deeply hands-on and production-oriented.

I care less about frameworks and more about:

• reducing unnecessary complexity
• designing clear system boundaries
• building abstractions that survive real delivery pressure

Scrawler-labs
Scrawler-labs is an open-source initiative focused on building opinionated backend frameworks and tools that reduce boilerplate, automate repetitive work, and encourage cleaner system design under real-world constraints.

Scrawler
An open-source framework designed to reduce backend code complexity by automating common infrastructure and application patterns, enabling faster development without compromising correctness, extensibility, or long-term maintainability.

I approach open source the same way I approach production systems: practical, constrained, and shaped by real usage rather than idealized abstractions.

I write about system architecture, applied AI, and engineering trade-offs encountered while building and maintaining real systems.

I use GitHub primarily to build and maintain systems, frameworks, and tools that emerge from real work. Some repositories represent finished ideas, others capture experiments or intermediate thinking.
