03 / Field notes
What I’m thinking about.
The Harness Decides When the Work Is Done
What harness optimization research teaches us about completion checks, verified repository memory, and improving coding agents through controlled experiments.
Serving LLMs at Scale with vLLM and SGLang
A practical guide to inference architecture, KV cache economics, prefix reuse, routing, and operating vLLM and SGLang under production latency targets.
From Copilot to Delegate: Why Autonomous Agents Need a Sandbox
Reliable AI delegation needs more than a capable model. It needs an isolated execution boundary for context, access, workflow, cost, and human escalation.
Engineering ideas, grounded in how systems actually work.
04 / The person behind the work
An engineer.
A team builder.
Always learning.
I’ve spent 20+ years building platforms and the organizations behind them—from data infrastructure acquired by AWS to a 200+ engineer team at Concierto.cloud.
I lead through directors and engineering managers across five product clusters, spanning architecture, hands-on engineering, and leadership. I’m an IIM Ahmedabad alumnus, and open-source contributions keep me close to the tools and systems we build on.
Good engineering starts with a conversation.
Let’s talk about platforms, agentic AI, and building teams.
