About

Hi, I'm Maharishi — a Computer Science student who loves building software that interacts with the real world.

My work sits at the intersection of backend engineering, AI, and robotics. Whether I'm writing a computer-vision pipeline for an autonomous rover, building a privacy-first AI voice companion, or designing scalable REST APIs, I enjoy turning complex problems into working solutions.

I spend most of my time in Python, C++, Node.js and FastAPI. I genuinely enjoy the gritty parts of engineering — optimising a lane-tracking system to run under 8 milliseconds, or debugging coordinate drift in a navigation stack. Ultimately I just like designing solid systems and tackling interesting technical problems.
