About

I build the infrastructure that lets AI agents discover and buy things. At Tru Commerce (formerly Asva AI), I shipped our Model Context Protocol server end to end: a FastAPI service exposing 19 tools, backed by a full OAuth 2.1 authorization server on PostgreSQL. It is live, and it passed Anthropic's MCP Registry checks and Claude Desktop discovery. Since then I have built: A second MCP server for a partner retail brand, where live purchases now complete end to end inside Claude and ChatGPT. 14 tools covering search, cart, checkout over UCP and ACP, orders and signed webhooks. The Agentic Readiness Validator, which powers a public scanner ranking 1,549 e-commerce stores. A multi-tenant Shopify AI shopping assistant running on 5 D2C storefronts, including a voice agent with 10-language speech to text. Most of my work is unglamorous backend engineering: 60+ PostgreSQL migrations, rate limiting across 27 LLM call sites, Retry-After backoff with jitter, circuit breakers, idempotency keys, and closing cross-tenant data access before anyone found it. Before Tru Commerce I was a DevOps engineering intern at Scaler, building automation and backend services for their platform and writing the DevOps problem sets their learners train on. Stack: Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, TypeScript, React, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS. Model Context Protocol, ACP, UCP. 4x AWS Certified (Solutions Architect Associate, Machine Learning Engineer Associate, AI Practitioner, Cloud Practitioner). IEEE published on ensemble learning for VM migration prediction. GitHub: github.com/y1k1sharma Happy to talk MCP, agentic commerce, or how to build an LLM backend that does not fall over.
