Featured Projects
ADK Agent
A CLI tool that scans your repos for stale technologies, reads your local tech digests, and suggests concrete projects where the two overlap. Built on Google's ADK with a parallel agent pipeline running on Gemini 2.5 Flash.
URL Shortener
A URL shortener built to explore how distributed systems scale, ending with a full AWS deployment across EC2, RDS PostgreSQL with a read replica, and ElastiCache. Load tested to 715 RPS under 2,000 concurrent users via Locust.
kv-engine
A minimal, single-process key-value storage engine built to explore durability, crash behaviour, concurrency correctness, and storage semantics from first principles. Implements write-ahead logging, atomic snapshots, and linearizable access.
AoCode
Advent of Code IDE designed to help efficiently solve Advent of Code's daily puzzles. Features Syntax highlighting, a built-in terminal, a code editor and a custom Utils file, all built with PySide.

About Me
Hey, my name's Kabir. My passion for technology began at 12, learning about CPUs, then Python at 13. Hackathons solidified my love for backend development, especially building encrypted communication for therapists.
At Bright Young Things, I founded and taught coding summer schools, realizing my enjoyment for teaching. University broadened my horizons, sparking a keen interest in AI and ML through conferences.
Recently, I've expanded into enterprise infrastructure through my role at Twin Technology, an MSP where I've gained hands-on experience with Azure AD, Microsoft 365 administration, and enterprise security policies. This has given me a unique perspective bridging software development and infrastructure management.
Fast forward to now, and I'm currently in my final year at university having discovered AWS and Azure and how much I enjoy using them, and building projects around them, as you saw in one of the projects above.
