Building scalable systems, low-latency backends and real-world infrastructure.
👋 About Me
I am a Computer Science undergraduate at SRM Institute of Science and Technology with interests in backend engineering, systems programming, networking, databases, and distributed systems.
My current focus areas include database internals, high-performance backend systems, networking protocols, and infrastructure engineering.
I build systems projects from scratch to deepen my understanding of distributed systems and backend architecture.
Current Focus
- ▸Zoqik Database Server— Building a Redis-inspired, in-memory data engine in C++ with a resilient RESP parser and high-throughput networking.
- ▸Systems & Performance— Backend systems, low-latency networking, and database internals — focusing on correctness and measurable performance.
