Building

Crafting cutting-edge developer tools and scalable infrastructure, with a focus on global impact through strategic innovation, open-source publishing, and community-driven growth.

About Me

I'm a creative developer with 5+ years of experience in building digital products. I love turning complex problems into simple, beautiful solutions that make a difference.

Profile

Let me introduce myself

I'm Sarthak karode, B-Tech student at NIT Trichy. I build in public and a systems-oriented engineer focused on crafting impactful developer tools and modular infrastructure that scale across ecosystems. My work merges deep technical execution with a product-driven mindset — from designing intuitive DX-first tooling and publishing open-source packages, to leading GTM strategies, fundraising initiatives, and community adoption efforts. I thrive at the intersection of software architecture, developer experience, and global product growth — building with intent to empower the next generation of developers worldwide.

When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open-source projects, or sharing knowledge with the developer community through blogs and talks.
