Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAtharva Raykar is a product-focused engineer and systems thinker with nine years of experience building backend systems for logistics, public healthcare, telephony and voice AI. As the resident "AI guy" at nilenso, he bridges research-grade agent work and pragmatic production deployments—his work on AI agents was highlighted in Andrej Karpathy’s Software 3.0 talk. He has taken products from zero to one, shipping scalable voice assistant backends (200k DAU, 1M+ downloads) and architecting offline-first, FHIR-compatible healthcare APIs used across nations. A strong believer in doing things correctly and rigorously, Atharva combines low-level systems chops (contributions to Git submodule internals) with fast prototyping and measurable observability. Based in Bengaluru, he pairs deep technical execution with an interest in AI progress, benchmarks, and unconventional topics like non-duality.
