Iβm a student obsessed with how systems work under the hood. I break things on purpose, fix them, and document the lessons. Currently designing RefleXSys (a phased research + engineering project) and iterating on OSpect, a system introspection tool.
- π§ Focus: Linux, OS internals, observability, reliability, tooling
- π§ͺ Edge: Fearless experimentation β faster learning loops
- π Loop I love: Break β Debug β Fix β Document β Share
- Systems: process introspection, observability pipelines, filesystems, performance
- DevOps: reproducible setups, CI/CD, containers, minimal base images, automation
- Research: clear abstraction boundaries and pragmatic system design
-
OSpect β system introspection tool
- Why: system resource extractor (alt. Neofetch)
- Status: currently on hold unless EUREKA! β³
- Repo: https://github.com/Coder-Harshit/OSpect
-
RefleXSys β phased research + engineering project
- Scope: architecture, experimentation tracks, reflection cycles
- Repo: https://github.com/Coder-Harshit/RefleXSys
- Status: Active Development

BLOGS β notes, logs, write-ups, and post-mortems
- π Keep learning logs and post-mortems (even for tiny breakages)
- π§° Prefer simple, composable tools; automate when it hurts twice
- π Biased toward fundamentals over frameworks; measure and reflect
- π§ Lives in the terminal
- Systems & Linux: introspection, debugging, observability, reliability
- DevOps mindset: reproducibility, CI/CD, containerization, scripting
- Always learning: kernels, packaging, sandboxing, build systems
Core tools I reach for
- Linux β’ Shell (bash/zsh) β’ Git
- Virtual Machines (Qemu/VirtualBox) β’ Containers (Docker) β’ GitHub Actions
- Python β’ C/C++
Full toolbox (click to expand)
- Linux, Bash/Zsh, Git
- Docker, minimal images
- GitHub Actions (CI/CD)
- Python, C/C++, scripting for tooling/automation
- Editors/IDE: Vim, VS Code, Zed
- Reproducible environments, dotfiles, minimal setups
Iβm actively seeking roles/internships in:
- Systems/Platform Engineering
- DevOps/SRE
- Tooling and Developer Experience
If youβre building lean, reliable systems and love people who learn by doing, letβs talk.
