## Headline

Building at the edge of AI x hardware · IIT Madras

## About

I started early in AI \- my final\-year thesis at IIT Madras led to Predible Health in 2016, where we built Deep Learning systems to help clinicians interpret medical scans faster\. We didn't just write algorithms; we deployed GPU rigs on\-premise inside hospitals to run them\. That 0→1 journey ended in an acquisition by nference in 2021\. Since then, I've built software products across different scales and domains\. At Bounce, I worked on supply\-shaping algorithms that helped commuters reliably find rides \- scaling from 10K to 100K\+ daily rides in under 3 quarters\. At Plum Benefits, I owned the Admin Experience \- scaling the core platform for HR teams as we moved from SMBs to enterprise, contributing to a 15× revenue increase\. Over time, I started to notice a pattern: we’re over\-optimizing software while under\-exploring intelligence in the physical world\. We’ve perfected dashboards and workflows\. But the next leap isn’t another layer of SaaS \- it’s systems that sense, decide, and act\. I'm now on a deliberate sabbatical, going deep on applied deep tech \- exploring how AI can be embedded into machines, not as a feature, but as the intelligence layer that makes them think, adapt, and improve over time\. This could look like robotics, energy systems, industrial intelligence, or entirely new form factors\. If you're a researcher, engineer, or operator thinking along similar lines \- let's talk\. When I'm not building products, you'll find me lifting weights, backpacking, or floating weightlessly underwater as a certified diver \- just me and my bubbles\.
