I build AI products that make difficult work meaningfully easier: agentic systems, developer tooling, automation platforms, and full-stack products that people can actually use. I care about the unglamorous parts too - reliability, evaluation, feedback loops, shipping, and learning from users.

I am currently a Software Engineer (AI) at Samsung Research, and I am excited by the overlap of AI, crypto-native coordination, and developer ecosystems. Hacker House Goa feels like the right environment to turn that curiosity into a product with real users and a real launch.

What I bring

• Enterprise agentic AI: I co-built D-Claw by Samsung Research, a developer agent built on ZeroClaw that connects Jira, Confluence, Perforce, and Mail with persistent memory and cross-platform task automation. It is in company-wide beta and saves developers about six hours a week.
• Automation that has a business case: I built a full-stack agentic Smart-TV QA platform that runs from test-case generation to execution, with a projected 40% reduction in testing time and 70% less manual effort. I also architected an OCR + RAG document-extraction system used by 3 client applications across 10+ teams, reducing manual processing by 90%.
• Product velocity: I co-founded Servey, a native Mac-to-iPhone/iPad remote-access product with a real shell, full input control, hardware-accelerated LAN streaming, and encrypted WebRTC fallback for remote access.
• A point of view on AI-native engineering: I built VibeForces, a training, assessment, and recruiting platform for engineers who ship with AI. It supports prompt-based tasks, managed-agent tasks in sandboxed GitHub repositories, live contests, automated scoring, and recruiter workflows. It placed #4 at the OpenAI India Hackathon.

Selected proof of work

Hacker House Goa 2026

I am coming to build, not merely prototype. My strongest contribution to a team is taking a fuzzy, technically ambitious idea and driving it to a working, demoable product: defining the user, cutting scope, building the core flow, instrumenting feedback, and making the story legible.

I am particularly interested in AI × Crypto ideas around:

• agentic developer tooling and autonomous workflows;
• trust, permissions, provenance, and evaluation for AI agents;
• AI-native consumer products with credible on-chain primitives; and
• products that turn crypto infrastructure into something useful for people who do not care about the infrastructure yet.

These are areas I want to explore with strong crypto-native teammates; they are directions, not a pre-decided project. I would rather find a painful problem and ship the smallest convincing solution in four days.

Looking to team up with

Builders who are sharp, low-ego, and biased toward launch: protocol or smart-contract engineers, crypto product thinkers, designers with taste, growth-minded storytellers, and other AI engineers who want to make something people will use after Goa.
