Sakthi Kumar Sampath Kumar
Graduate Student & Full Stack Developer
Hey there! I’m Sakthi Kumar, a software engineer, HPC enthusiast, and systems tinkerer who loves pushing the boundaries of high-performance computing and distributed systems. Whether it’s accelerating things with GPUs or designing resilient cloud architectures, I’m all about making things run faster, smarter, and more efficiently.
🚀 I specialize in low-latency systems, compilers, and full-stack engineering, blending C++, CUDA, and cloud computing to craft solutions that scale. I enjoy tackling complex performance bottlenecks and bringing theoretical concepts to life with optimized, production-ready code.
🛠️ Currently diving deep into C++, CUDA, and cloud architectures, while occasionally experimenting with D3.js for dynamic visualizations.
⚡ When I’m not coding, you’ll probably find me optimizing my keyboard setup, strategizing over DOTA, or automating random things just for fun.
☕ Espresso enthusiast.
Let’s connect and build something awesome! 💡
