Summary
Manan Karnik is a software developer and current MS Computer Science student at Northeastern University with eight years of hands-on experience across full-stack, systems, and game development. He ships production Flutter Android apps used by thousands and has built complex Vue.js front-ends integrated with C# backends. Deeply focused on performance, he programs in Rust and Assembly, created a popular Rust plugin for the Bevy game engine (115+ stars, 5k+ downloads), and experiments with WebAssembly-powered procedural generation and x86 bootloaders. As a teaching assistant he supports courses in assembly, OS, and memory management, reinforcing his systems-first mindset. He prefers Linux-centric workflows (Arch, Hyprland, Neovim) and values purposeful abstractions and clean, efficient code. Manan is seeking Summer 2026 co-ops in systems programming, game engines, or compiler/tooling roles where low-level performance and pragmatic design matter.
