Quietly building systems that think.
I'm Vivek — a developer and AI engineer designing calm, deliberate software at the intersection of research and production.
A quiet approach to building things that last.
"The best systems are the ones you stop noticing — they simply work, and get out of your way."
My work sits quietly at the intersection of AI research and production engineering. I've led research initiatives at ISRO and Samsung PRISM on model distillation, multimodal NLP, and computer vision — translating papers into shipped software.
Beyond research, I build end-to-end — from training pipelines and inference infrastructure to the front-end surfaces people actually touch. Every layer is deliberate.
- 01 Clarity over clevernessSystems legible at 2 a.m.
- 02 Research-grade rigorMeasured, reproducible, explainable.
- 03 Calm by defaultInterfaces and APIs that never shout.
Selected work, carefully chosen.
A curated sample of 18 shipped systems — production deployments and research experiments.
/ 01 Arch Web Desktop
A modern web-based desktop environment that recreates the Arch Linux desktop experience in your browser. Built with SvelteKit and featuring a complete window management system, applications, and desktop utilities.
/ 02 My Blog Website
The source code for my personal blog website. Features a clean, responsive design with dark mode support, integrated search functionality, and optimized content delivery for fast load times.
/ 03 Kaarigar.shop
An eco-friendly marketplace showcasing sustainable, handcrafted pieces by local artisans. Features include product filtering, secure checkout, user accounts, and a content management system for easy inventory updates.
