Hi Traveller, I am Ajit! I grew up in Medininagar, a small city in Jharkhand, India. From childhood I have been curious about most things: space, animals, computers, science. I completed my graduation in Computer Science at IIT (ISM) Dhanbad. Today, I build software for a living, spending my time on distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and AI systems. I love working at the intersection of these and have a broad interest in all aspects of software, from infrastructure to product to the ideas in between. Always ready to chat about these topics.

When you meet me you may catch me finding patterns and connecting distinct ideas. For example, I play games with license plates in traffic, connect history to technology, present to future. I draw sometimes, write poems and stories but rarely share them, and also have a big pile of ideas waiting to be executed (hopefully will be shared and completed going forward).

Enough about me!

This site is about systems, the technical kind. How protocols work, why certain designs exist, what breaks at scale. Every post starts from a hypothesis, builds something real, and tries to get at the why.

But if you’re curious about the other things I occasionally write about, I’m on Substack.
