Hi there! I'm Ashutosh Kumar
Final-year CSE undergrad at IIIT Bhopal, currently Rank 1 in my department. I build low-latency systems in C++ and ship full-stack products that work in production — not just in demos.
My flagship project LOBE is a C++17 limit order book engine with a real-time WebSocket market feed, clocking P50 latencies of 102ns across 100K ops. I care deeply about how code interacts with hardware, and I think most software is far slower than it needs to be.
Outside of code I grind competitive programming (LeetCode Knight, 1929 rating, AIR 70 nationally, 985+ problems solved), prep system design, and occasionally dive into Vedic astrology as a mental reset. Actively hunting for SDE roles at companies where performance actually matters.
