Backend & Systems Engineering · B.Tech @ IIT Roorkee
I enjoy working on distributed systems, database internals, and the kind of performance work where you care about p99s, not averages. I like building things that move data under load and understanding why they behave the way they do — most of what I know, I've learned by building.
I care about clean abstractions and systems that stay boring and reliable under load. If you're working on storage, query execution, or anything that has to stay correct at scale, let's talk.
Rust🦀 · low-level performance · concurrency · observability-first
FluxDB — a PostgreSQL-inspired, index-organized storage engine in Rust. I'm a co-lead driving the engineering bar — the project where I learned what it actually takes to keep a database correct and durable under concurrency. So far we've shipped the buffer pool, MVCC layer, and B+ trees; current work is integrating the layers and adding the recovery layer.
EdgeProxy — a single-binary, self-hosted gateway for MCP servers in Rust. It started as a production reverse proxy (moka caching, DashMap rate limiting, tiered L1/L2 storage, TLS) and is pivoting that machinery into an MCP-aware layer: session virtualization to beat sticky sessions, tool-definition pinning against rug-pulls, fast tool-search to collapse 50 tools into ~2, and MCP-aware caching of idempotent calls — point it at any stdio/HTTP server and get one fast, secure, observable endpoint.
MatchBench — a distributed load generator for exchange matching engines with an eBPF measurement pipeline (~100ns timestamp accuracy), pushing ~835k ops/s on a single instance and scaling to 1.5M/s across two. Detailed analysis runs on every submission by measuring p50/p95/p99/p99.9 and plotting the entire HdrHistogram.
Deimos — an open-source ZK proving benchmark suite for mobile hardware, with Rust proving backends wired in over native FFI and a full-stack dashboard (Node/Express + PostgreSQL, Next.js) for cross-framework analysis. It earned a grant from the Ethereum Foundation and is heading to production soon.
Orbital — a multi-dimensional AMM (inspired by Paradigm research) for stablecoin swaps, with high-precision Q96.48 fixed-point math and a Newton-Raphson solver in Arbitrum Stylus — an 80% gas reduction over Solidity.
Plus a handful of smaller systems builds for learning the fundamentals: a distributed web crawler · an async TCP chat server · an L7 reverse proxy.
