Hey, thanks for stopping by!

I’m a software engineer drawn to the craft of systems that scale. Distributed backends, high-throughput services, cloud infrastructure that stays calm under pressure: the quiet architecture behind software that just works.

Somewhere in that work, intelligence shows up too. Models, automation, data in motion. Not as a side quest, but as part of how modern systems think, adapt, and keep moving.

If you’re into building things that last, shipping with care, or talking shop about systems, you’re in the right place. Pull up a chair.

Startup

Follow along

I believe that a startup is born from a really good project that you’ve developed over the years. It can be a college project, your research or an exciting opportunity that you have seen coming. When this project is loved by customers, it becomes a startup.

Introducing mine: Prodigy

Prodigy is an AI workforce infrastructure that provides on-demand employees based on a team’s workload and requirements. We have built our own agentic workspace and scrum environment where human and AI employees work together as part of the same team.

Product in Beta: reach out on prodigy.sam10@gmail.com for testing.
Received $175k in infra from Y Combinator and Startup Foundry.

Open-Source
