I'm Chitresh, a research engineer working on AI currently exploring inference engineering. I'm finishing CS & Data Science at Mumbai University.

I build to understand. I worked in distributed systems building database migration runners, implementing Stripe's canonical log lines, and studying the fundamentals in depth: networks, databases, operating systems, etc. and in quantitative research, where I built data pipelines, implemented an exchange matching engine, and built dev tools for quant work. Each one taught me something the next one needed.

Outside of that, I read widely across deep tech (semiconductors, biotech, aerospace, and more) always looking for the next big thing. I also read a lot about finance: hedge funds, investment banks, and private equity. I'm drawn to strategy and intelligence, reading the landscape to see what the next big move should be. I like finding where the real problems are, and I like solving them.
