Experience
Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer
Building a Cognitive Performance OS and a neuromodulation wearable with closed-loop brain-state sensing and real-time intervention. Sole architect of the software infrastructure across both products; designed and shipped HyleHQ.com and RewiringFocus.com on Next.js, PostgreSQL and Vercel. Recruits and manages an intern team, and owns legal infrastructure, brand identity, investor communications and go-to-market.
Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer
Secured a ₹10 Lakh Genesis MeitY Grant and led the product from hardware prototype to the enterprise vision intelligence platform Kenesis.ai. Represented Kenesis on national television and led exhibitions at GITEX Dubai and India Mobile Congress 2025, where it won Best Innovative Startup Display. Owned product vision, operations and go-to-market, and built the iOS app ecosystem in SwiftUI.
AI and Medical Technology Intern
Developed an end-to-end CNN pipeline for skeletal bone-age estimation from pediatric hand radiographs, deployed with MONAI Label and 3D Slicer. Conducted on-site validation at Egmore Children’s Hospital against live clinical X-rays and radiologist assessments, authored operation manuals, and shipped the company website in React.
Freelance Consultant and Full-Stack Engineer
Designed, built and shipped 25+ web applications for startups, consultancy firms and hackathon organizations, specialising in SEO-optimised Next.js builds and 3D web experiences with Three.js and GSAP.
Selected Projects
A lightweight AI smartglass for real-time scene understanding, navigation and memory recall, with a hybrid edge-cloud engine for low-connectivity use. Taken from alpha through field testing, then extended into a modular API layer for reasoning, episodic memory and live workflow guidance.
Applied research on flow-state modeling and closed-loop neurostimulation, grounded in Csikszentmihalyi’s Flow Theory: statistical models for skill decay, exponential moving average mastery estimation and flow-channel classification.
Scheduling and route management for a fleet of 7,683 buses across 606 routes: Adaptive Large Neighbourhood Search for duty scheduling, LSTM models for passenger flow and arrival times, and GIS-based route optimisation on a Kubernetes microservices backend.
A unified tracking platform consolidating GPS and GSM telematics, OBD-II data, port cameras and logistics APIs across ship, rail and road cargo for the Ministry of Coal. National Winner, Smart India Hackathon 2023.
Machine learning credit scoring for SME lending: applicants scored on sixteen financial parameters, extracted from tax filings and balance sheets by a computer vision and regex pipeline.
Classifying plant bioelectrical signals into healthy or stressed and hydrated or dehydrated states. Microsoft Imagine Cup 2024, MVP round.
Story-driven 3D games in Unreal Engine 4 and Blender. Design Championship 2020 regional winner and national runner-up.
Research
Research interests sit where applied AI meets people: computer vision, medical imaging, biosignal processing, contextual and episodic memory, cognitive performance, and optimisation and forecasting. The common thread is work tested against real users, clinics and field deployments rather than benchmarks alone. Publications in preparation are listed on the research page.
