Engineer by trade, agent-builder by obsession, and chronically curious about pretty much everything else — chess, mountains, film cameras, good coffee.

Take a look around ↓ Say hi

the short version

I'm a 25-year-old engineer from Mumbai. I studied Chemical Engineering at IIT Bombay, fell for code somewhere along the way, and now I spend my days teaching computers to do genuinely useful work — lately, AI agents for factories. The rest of the time I'm outdoors, behind a camera, or losing a chess game I swore I had won.

What I actually do (the day job I love)

I build AI agents — systems that do real, trustworthy work. Here's the short tour.

Now

Co-founder & CTO, Foreman Labs ↗

I'm building the factory's brain — agentic systems that capture the know-how stuck in people's heads and help operators fix problems fast. Two products: NOVA (root-cause copilot) and Scout (where's-the-plant-losing-money mapping).

  • Agents
  • Time-series
  • Retrieval
  • Plant-floor data

Nov 2023 — 2026

AI Engineer · Harmoney YC W22

Built the agentic AI that does financial research like an analyst.

  • 66.2% on BigFinanceBench
  • RAG over 500K+ docs
  • MCP server · 50+ tools
  • LoRA fine-tuning
Jun 2022 — Oct 2023

Global Credit · Deutsche Bank

Structured-credit financing and a bit of quant, before I went full engineer.

  • EUR 900mn CLO & ABS book
  • CDS options hedging
  • London, 2022

a few favourite builds

  • Streaming agent framework — tool-using agent, 66.2% on BigFinanceBench (+7% vs Opus).
  • RAG over 500K+ documents — hybrid retrieval + reranking, citation-backed.
  • OAuth 2.0 MCP server — 50+ data tools & 10+ skills exposed to Claude.
  • Custom reverse proxy — L7/L4 load balancing over asyncio + Redis.

Things I love doing

Dummy list — tell me what's actually true and I'll fix it.

♟

Chess

Rapid games on lichess, perpetually chasing 1800. Will absolutely take you on.

🥾

Trekking

Weekend trails in the Sahyadris; the longer and muddier, the better.

📷

Film photography

Shooting 35mm on an old Yashica. Slower, more deliberate, more fun.

☕

Coffee

Over-engineering pour-overs and pretending I can taste the difference.

📚

Reading

Sci-fi mostly — give me a hard-SF rabbit hole and I'm gone for a weekend.

🎧

Music

Lo-fi while coding, classic rock otherwise. Slowly learning the guitar.

currently

  • 📖 Reading Project Hail Mary
  • 🎧 Listening lo-fi + a lot of Pink Floyd
  • 🎮 Playing chess & Factorio
  • 🔭 Building the factory's brain @ Foreman Labs

a few random things

  • Chemical engineer by degree, agent-builder by obsession.
  • Cleared CFA Level II in the 90th percentile… then went full engineer.
  • Dept. Rank 2 of 130 at IIT Bombay.
  • Once flew to London solo for work in my first year.

Let's be friends :)
