hrideshmg/README.md

Hey, I'm Hridesh!

I’m a 4th-year CSE undergrad and open-source contributor interested in systems, infrastructure, and backend engineering.

Selected work

  • LFX 2024 · Linux Kernel: Reverse-engineered Windows ACPI tables and upstreamed 11+ patches improving audio and performance-profile support for Acer laptops. I later spoke about the work at the Linux Foundation's Open Source Summit.

  • GSoC 2025 · CCExtractor: Revived CCExtractor's distributed cloud test infrastructure, increasing CI throughput by 50%. Also fixed 20+ regressions across its C/Rust core and helped prepare the project for its v1.00 release.

  • BunkMate: Built the Django backend for an open-source attendance platform with 10k+ playstore downloads.

I enjoy working across layers, from kernel patches and cloud infrastructure to user-facing products.

A lot of my learning happens through tinkering: rebuilding my NixOS setup, tweaking Neovim, self-hosting tools, and following small technical curiosities further than strictly necessary :)

I'm also a 4× hackathon winner, IndiaFOSS speaker, and committee member at amFOSS, where I lead open-source initiatives and mentor student developers.
