About

Code, markets,
and first principles.

I'm a CSE student at Amrita School of Computing, Bengaluru — builder, avid reader, and motorcycle enthusiast, building production-grade systems where algorithmic finance meets modern engineering.

Under AlgorithmicBit, I design LLM-powered applications, quantitative trading frameworks, and platforms that solve real problems from gig-worker income protection to institutional-grade financial analysis.

My thinking is shaped by first principles and systems theory: find the underlying structure, strip away noise, act with precision. Markets are just another complex system waiting to be modeled.

When I'm not shipping code, I'm either deep in a book or out on my NX200 carving through the uneven Bangalore Roads. I read broadly - philosophy, history, physics, and the occasional dense biography — anything that rewires how I think.

Notes

Reading is a core input. I treat books the way I treat market data — looking for the signal beneath the noise, building mental models that compound over time. Current obsessions: risk, decision theory, and the psychology of smart people being confidently wrong.
