About

Hey, I'm Sachin — a software engineer who loves building things from the ground up. I'm currently pursuing my MS in Computer Science at NYU, where I spend most of my time thinking about distributed systems, AI infrastructure, and developer tools. When I'm not writing code, I'm probably writing about it here.
