Hey! I’m Kush, a computer scientist who likes building things that work at scale.

Currently at Google working on storage infrastructure. Before this, I’ve worked on payroll systems at Rippling, pricing at Amazon, data platforms at Gojek, and oddly enough, shipped a AAA racing game (Team Sonic Racing ) at Sumo Digital.

I spend a lot of time on open source(reading/writing). Co-founded Raystack where we’re building modern data infrastructure tools. Some things I’ve built in Raystack:

• Optimus - workflow orchestrator for data transformations
• Frontier - user management platform, think open source alternative to Clerk

Find what else I tinker at Github .

Mostly write Go and C++ these days. Love tinkering with distributed systems, databases, and infrastructure. Sometimes I build random stuff just to see if I can.

Based in Bangalore, India. Have anything to say? Find me on X .
