Background / current direction

A practice shaped by systems and communities.

I am a 2nd-year B.Tech CSE student (MAKAUT-affiliated, West Bengal) and a T-shaped developer who works across the full stack. From frontend to AI integrations to DevOps — I build and ship real products. Ayushman, the founder of Elixpo, guided me into open source and shaped my understanding of collaborative development.

The practical direction

PROFILE

I am currently a Frontend AI Engineering Intern at FlyRank AI and a core contributor at Elixpo. Ayushman introduced me to open source when I was confused about what direction to take — and that changed everything. Since then, I've contributed to Pollinations, built Kareixo (an AI code reviewer), shipped Nirmaan MUN, and worked across multiple Elixpo products.

Interested in collaboration, internships, or freelance work? Feel free to reach out.
