Software Engineer · KPMG India
I build fast, reliable systems — from identity governance platforms to full-stack products. Backend-leaning across Java, Go and Linux, comfortable end to end. Reach me at suryansh@archdev.in.
What I work with
A pragmatic full-stack engineer with a backend bias — strongest in the JVM and Go ecosystems, comfortable across the stack and automation.
Selected work
A few things I've been building — an enterprise OS, a compliance product, and some frontend R&D. Open any card for the full case study.
Featured · MVP in dev
An enterprise OS — a unified operating layer that brings an organization's tools, workflows and data into a single system, with shared identity and one data model across every module. Currently in active development toward its MVP.
MVP ready
A product I've been building — AuditFlow streamlines audit and compliance workflows, giving teams less friction and clearer accountability. The MVP is ready; I built the token-driven design system and the theme-aware marketing site alongside the product UI.
A small-scale CMS I used to sharpen my frontend skills. It explores a lightweight UI library built on the Shadow DOM to replace React where it isn't needed, plus islands of micro React apps — e.g. embeddable chat widgets inside HTMX or Shadow-DOM-based sites.
Writing
I occasionally write about the things I work on — identity, AI, Linux, and where the craft is heading. No schedule, just when I have something worth saying.
A full crash course in plain language: AI vs ML vs DL, how a language model works inside, prompting and RAG, agent frameworks and multi-agent systems, optimization and guardrails — and how it all becomes a real, safe, compliant architecture for identity and access management.
Read →I've spent real time in both. Here's the honest version of why Identity Security Cloud is the better bet for most teams — and the cases where IdentityIQ still earns its keep.
Read →I've been writing code for about six years, two and a half of them professionally — which means my whole working career has happened inside this AI shift. This is my honest read from that vantage: what has actually changed, what hasn't, and the bets I'm making.
Read →Arch has a reputation for being hard. It isn't, really — it's just honest. Here's what makes it different, and how to install it end to end, finishing with the script I use every time.
Read →A rolling-release system that's always current sounds scary until you have an undo button. Btrfs snapshots give you exactly that — roll a bad update back in seconds, and back up so the machine is never truly beyond repair.
Read →Tinkering
One Bash script that takes a fresh Arch base install to a usable desktop — locale, user, services, bootloader and KDE, with sane interactive prompts. It's the twenty commands I'd otherwise retype every time, written down once.
