I build the quiet parts of engineering, the pipelines that just work, the internal tools teams reach for without thinking, and the systems that stay calm when things go wrong. Based in Chennai, India with 5+ years across cloud, on-prem, and the awkward middle where most real systems live. I spend most of my time around infrastructure automation, CI/CD, and platform engineering, usually trying to make complicated systems behave in simple, predictable ways. When I’m not doing the above, I’m usually tinkering with homelab setups or building small CLI tools.

Building

  • kredenv - Secrets & env vars, encrypted and injected straight into your shell. AES-256-GCM, argon2id, zero cloud dependency.
  • servd - Cross-platform service manager with a web dashboard. Less config, more control.
  • asky - Minimal interactive prompt library for Go CLI apps.
  • termicolr - Lightweight terminal theming package for Go.

Exploring

  • Rust - Systems-level tooling, memory-safe single binaries, and eventually a GUI or two.
  • Kubernetes - Everyone said I'd need it eventually. They might be right.
  • Agentic DevOps - AI is changing how infra gets built. Figuring out what that means in practice.
  • kredenv - v1 is out. The real work starts now.
