Systems-focused software engineer specializing in Rust, low-level systems, and networking.
What I'm looking for
I am a systems-focused software engineer with strong expertise in Rust, low-level systems programming, and networking. I recently completed an Integrated M.Tech in Mathematics and Computing from the Indian Institute of Technology, Dhanbad, where I deepened my knowledge in operating systems, networks, and algorithms.
During a Software Engineering internship at Cosdata, I implemented a Role-Based Access Control system, standardized VectorDB REST APIs, added gRPC support, and introduced a collection cache to reduce memory usage. I also improved authentication security by removing hardcoded credentials and adding admin key confirmation during setup.
My projects include building an RTOS component in Rust with priority-based scheduling and timing mechanisms, and developing a high-performance network packet analyzer using Rust, Tokio, and pnet that performs concurrent, zero-copy packet processing for multi-protocol analysis.
I contribute to campus tech communities as a member of Cyber Labs and as Coordinator for SAIRC's Media and Branding Cell. I seek roles where I can apply systems programming skills to build reliable, high-performance infrastructure and tooling.
