About
Kritagya
Loomba
Final-year Computer Science student with a deep interest in backend engineering, distributed systems, and tools that make learning more effective.
My work spans real-time data pipelines, collaborative platforms, and log aggregation systems. I care about building software that is reliable, well-structured, and genuinely useful.
Outside of engineering, I've led Monash WIRED (the university's IT society), tutored algorithms courses, and spent too much time analyzing Formula 1 telemetry data.

Philosophy
Simplicity First
The best systems are the simplest ones that solve the problem. I avoid premature abstraction and over-engineering.
Measure Everything
Engineering decisions should be backed by data. I instrument systems, write benchmarks, and let metrics guide optimization.
Build for Others
Software is for people. Whether it's a CLI tool or a full platform, I focus on clear interfaces and good documentation.
