Rudraditya Thakur

Turning caffeine into products.

I'm a systems engineer focused on building high-performance, reliable infrastructure. My work spans Linux networking, eBPF/XDP, distributed systems, reverse proxies, and observability pipelines, primarily using Rust, Go, C, and C++.

I enjoy working close to the fundamentals — understanding how systems behave, finding performance bottlenecks, and engineering solutions that are efficient, reliable, and built to scale.
