Summary
Ashish Gupta is a founder and seasoned systems engineer with 13 years of experience building and debugging operating systems and high-availability core infrastructure. Currently splitting time between founding BITNIBBLR and low-level OS work at Tesla, he brings rare expertise across hardware-adjacent assembly, kernel development, and production system design. His background includes core engineering roles at Optiver and Rakuten plus long-term contributions and mentorship to the tiny KolibriOS project, where he authored a GUI library and network clients under extreme size constraints. Comfortable moving from assembly opcodes to distributed APIs, he focuses on automating operations and eliminating human toil while keeping a playful, exploratory approach to how computers work. Based in Pittsburgh, he pairs academic training from Carnegie Mellon with practical, mentorship-driven open-source experience that surfaces in both tooling and education.
