Most of my production work lives in private repositories at Zettabolt Technologies Private Limited. The best window into my hands-on contributions is the open source PRs above — real code, real reviews, real projects.
My pinned repos include forks of the projects I actively work in:
- 🚀 apache/gluten — Spark native execution offloading to Velox
- 🧠 facebookincubator/velox — C++ vectorized execution engine
- 🔥 apache/spark — Distributed analytics engine
- 🤖 pytorch/pytorch — OOT device backend work
Open to conversations on Big Data infrastructure, accelerated computing & LLM systems.
"From the query engine to the transformer kernel — it's all just bytes waiting to go faster."
