01 — About
Sathwik Kumar Shetty

I’m an AI & ML undergrad at Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering, Bengaluru — class of 2027.

My work lives where backend engineering meets applied AI: agentic workflows, retrieval pipelines, and the distributed systems that serve them at scale. I care about throughput, reliability and clean boundaries as much as the model on top.
