Builder first. Founder next.
I’m Tarun, a CS student at SRMIST who builds AI agents, microservices and full-stack products, and treats every one of them like day one of a startup.
My favourite so far is Mailmind, an AI email client that reads your inbox so you don’t have to (mostly). Around it: a Kubernetes-hosted banking platform, microservices with live observability, and a skill-gap analyser that interviews you back.
The long game? Start a company and take it all the way to Silicon Valley. Until then I lead the Spatial Computing Lab, mentor student engineers, and run workshops on REST APIs and agentic AI.
Friends call me a leader; I’d add compassionate, and a little too passionate about everything I touch. Fun fact: I started out in the biology stream and switched to engineering after 12th grade. Off the keyboard, I’m gaming or buried in a book.
