## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to build secure, high-scale distributed systems, AI-powered products, and backend platforms where I can work on microservices, reliability, cloud infrastructure, and meaningful engineering challenges.
```

## About

```text
I'm building Trinetra at C-DOT Delhi, an AI-powered indigenous cybersecurity platform. I develop NLP systems, protect database PII with AES-GCM and AES-SIV key rotation, and secure service communication with RSA cryptography and TLS 1.3.

I've also built distributed platforms including WebSmith AI, where I created a Node.js and Redis reverse proxy supporting 10,000+ ephemeral subdomains with under 10 ms lookup latency, and a payment gateway designed for 10,000+ transactions per second. I enjoy designing microservices, reliable transaction workflows, containerized testing, and scalable Kubernetes deployments.
```
