About Me
I'm Harshit, an audio-tech and full-stack engineer who likes living where DSP meets machine learning. I build synths and VST plugins, ship multi-tenant backends, and train models for security and sound. Right now I'm heading to UPF Barcelona for a Master's in Sound & Music Computing.

Projects 
Kick Generator A variational autoencoder (VAE) trained on kick-drum samples. It learns a compact latent space of percussive sounds and samples from it to synthesize brand-new kicks, morphing smoothly between punchy, boomy, and clicky textures.
Clueminati 2025 The official event app for CodeChefVIT's Clueminati 2025, a real-time, QR-driven treasure hunt shipped as an installable PWA. Players scan QR codes to unlock clues and watch a live leaderboard update. Built on Next.js with MongoDB and TanStack Query, it stayed responsive under hundreds of concurrent participants.More Projects

KnowledgeVerse AI Software Development Engineer Intern · Bengaluru, IndiaMay 2025 – Aug 2025 | Dec 2025 – Present
KnowledgeVerse AI Software Development Engineer Intern · Bengaluru, IndiaMay 2025 – Aug 2025 | Dec 2025 – Present- #15× faster file/folder listing across the multi-tenant platform via a Redis caching layer with TTL-based invalidation.
- #Built and published the official Python SDK (kv-platform) to PyPI — auto-generated, strongly typed, with secure API-key auth.
- #Migrated the backend from sync to async (boto3 → aioboto3) across 18 files, removing event-loop blocking and speeding up report generation.
- #Shipped an end-to-end Stripe integration — dynamic plans, Payment Intents, subscription webhooks — with zero payment incidents.
- #Secured all auth flows with Google & Microsoft OAuth SSO (Authorization Code Flow + PKCE) across Next.js and FastAPI.
- #Built a serverless upload pipeline on AWS Lambda + S3, extended to Google Drive and OneDrive/SharePoint with encrypted uploads and retry handling.
Stack := Python, FastAPI, Next.js, Redis, AWS Lambda, S3, Stripe, OAuth / PKCE, aioboto3, asyncio, PyPI
- #Authored the “SynthQuest: Building a VST from Scratch” blog series on real-time audio DSP and the JUCE plugin pipeline.
- #Ran hands-on audio-programming workshops at local schools, teaching the fundamentals of sound synthesis and DSP.
- #Led the technical execution of Clueminati, CookOff, and DevSoc — flagship hackathons with 1000+ combined participants.
Stack := Next.js, TypeScript, MongoDB, C++, JUCE, Audio DSP
- #Oversaw technical operations of GraVITas '25, one of India's largest student-run fests with 40,000+ participants and 200+ events.
- #Led and mentored a team of developers building the portal and admin panel with role-based access for events, logistics, and R&R.
