I’m a Computer Science & Engineering graduate from Amity University Noida, passionate about Linux, open-source technologies, and software development. I love building tools, experimenting with systems, and contributing to meaningful tech communities.
I’m a two-time Google Summer of Code contributor under Automotive Grade Linux (AGL), a The Linux Foundation project, where I developed Qt-based applications to simulate CAN Bus signals. I also interned as an SDE at FOSSEE, IIT Bombay, contributing to the eSim platform, a free and open-source EDA tool, where I worked on installer tooling and Flatpak packaging.
Currently, I work as a Global Technical Support Engineer at Ciena, where I handle live network issues, triage and troubleshoot on Linux environments, and provide support for Network Management Systems.
Outside of tech, I enjoy playing guitar, football, table tennis, and diving into science fiction and new discoveries.
