About

Security and full-stack engineer, Wikimedian, builder

Security and full-stack engineer. I studied computer science and engineering at SATI, Vidisha, with a specialisation in IoT, cybersecurity and blockchain, and shipped work for IBM, EncodersPro, CFSS and the IT Council along the way.

Outside work I am a Wikimedian. I build tools for the movement - WhichTool, clip2commons, WikiScriptSync - serve on juries and program committees, and lead the India edition of the Wiki Science Competition.

I co-authored a post-quantum cryptography research proposal on the McEliece cryptosystem, founded Variable X, and mentored a few hundred students through the SATI coding club and the branch mentorship programme.
