About

Software engineer.
Interface to infrastructure.

I'm Aditya Prasad, a software engineer based in Georgetown, Guyana. I've built and maintained React and Node.js applications, led a DevOps team through production deployments and centralized logging, and served as Technical Lead on a drone-based pipeline inspection platform.

Outside client work I write Go tools for Linux, run a homelab, and study how networks are probed and defended. I'm currently working toward Hack The Box's Certified Web Exploitation Specialist certification.
