About

Sushrut Hundikar

Senior Software Engineer · IIT Bombay '23

I like pulling things apart.

Currently a senior software engineer at Pinnacle Intelligence. Previously a founding engineer at Merlin AI (YC S24), and before that at Jaguar Land Rover working on ADAS systems.

This site is for project write-ups and failure notes. Machine learning, infrastructure, and my favorite cat videos when I run out of things to post.

Projects

  • Holdout evaluation for biomedical knowledge-graph embeddings on DRKG: RotatE training, degree-stratified Hits@K, and structure baselines (Personalized PageRank) exposing epistemological circularity in drug-repurposing benchmarks.

  • Container-isolated function runtime with multi-language workers, built-in tabular persistence, and one-shot deploy to shareable API endpoints.

  • L4/L7 reverse proxy and load balancer with worker-pool scheduling, weighted round-robin, and in-memory / Redis response caching.

  • Walk-in-Interview-PortalDistributed systems

    Real-time interview orchestration with role-based access, waiting-room queues, WebSocket signaling, and WebRTC peer-to-peer media over PostgreSQL-backed state.
