Updated Autumn 2026
Now
A living log of what I'm actively building, studying, and thinking about.
Based in Pune, Maharashtra, India.
I divide my time between building deterministic AI evaluation harnesses, writing long-form architecture essays, and designing software that keeps probabilistic LLM steps bounded by strict engineering contracts.
What I'm Shipping
- FAULTLINE
A reproducible reliability workbench for document-grounded AI systems. 302 automated tests, 6 labelled failure injection classes, and out-of-band evaluation.
- project-brain↗
Model-independent project memory for AI coding editors, keeping context honest and preventing hallucinated architecture drift.
- figsense↗
Locale-correct numeric and currency parsing library published on PyPI.
Reading & Influences
Object-Oriented Software Construction
by Bertrand Meyer
Formal foundations of Design by Contract. Preconditions, postconditions, and class invariants as the true model of reliability boundaries.
Release It! (Design and Deploy Production-Ready Software)
by Michael Nygard
Circuit breakers, bulkheads, and steady-state patterns from distributed systems applied to probabilistic components.
Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference
by Thinking Machines Lab (2025)
Empirical proof of why batch non-invariance breaks temperature-zero determinism in production inference servers.
