I'm a third year CSE student at ABES Engineering College, Ghaziabad, and most of my time goes into Go, Kubernetes and the cloud native ecosystem. I contribute to CNCF projects and build things at hackathons when I need a break from reading other people's controllers.
The part I enjoy most is figuring out how a system actually behaves versus how it's supposed to behave. That's what pulled me into open source in the first place.
Right now I'm going deeper into Kubernetes internals, with SIG Node as the area I want to contribute to properly.
Merged work in CNCF projects, mostly Go, mostly fixes that came out of reading code closely:
| Project | What I worked on |
|---|---|
| CloudNativePG | TLS atomic write fix (backported to stable branches), a path traversal fix, and a memory leak in the kubectl plugin |
| Kmesh | 5 merged PRs, plus an MCP server prototype for issue #1800 |
| Antrea | NetworkPolicy logging fix |
| Karmada | Validation for external IPs in certificates |
| urunc | Fixes around mount handling, pivot_root, TAP device cleanup and PID reuse |
I was also a GSSoC'26 contributor with 10+ merged PRs, including a token bucket rate limiter in Go.
