Aadarsh Chandra ( Pi )
Software Developer / Builder
I’m an 18 year old self employed developer focused on building high-performance, production grade software. I work across the stack, from low level systems programming in C and Rust to scalable backends and full stack applications. I care about clean architecture, deep technical understanding, and shipping reliable tools fast. I build systems that are efficient, maintainable, and designed to scale.
Experience
Project Admin Open Source
GirlScript Summer of Code (GSSoC) • trx
- Selected as a Project Admin for `trx`, a blazing fast Rust-based package manager.
- Mentored and guided open-source contributors, helping them understand Rust, TUI libraries (Ratatui), and systems programming principles.
- Reviewed pull requests, triaged issues, optimized project structure, and facilitated collaborative feature development.
Meta Hackathon Finalist Hackathon
Meta • Developed KernelX
- Recognized as a finalist in the Meta Hackathon for designing and building `KernelX`.
- Developed an AI-driven Linux scheduler using a 360M parameter world model to optimize OS scheduling, latency, and throughput in real-time.
- Built low-level interfaces to hook the neural network decision loop directly into kernel scheduling operations.
Aptos Hackathon Finalist Hackathon
Aptos Foundation
- Reached the finals of the Aptos Hackathon, designing high-performance smart contracts and decentralized applications.
- Leveraged the Move programming language to build safe, sandboxed smart contracts with formal verification guarantees.
- Presented design architecture to Web3 industry experts and judges, showing scalable throughput and asset safety.
