About Me

Hi, I'm Guru Swarupa

Guru Swarupa

I'm a software engineer who likes taking things apart to understand how they work, then rebuilding them better. My work spans web, Android, and desktop apps, and IoT automation, with cybersecurity, DevOps, and automotive tech as ongoing obsessions on the side. Whatever the project, I'm usually a few rabbit holes deep in the terminal, chasing the next thing worth learning.
