PULKIT KUMAR — PORTFOLIO 2026

what makes

us human?

Founding engineer at Fettle, building voice AI for healthcare. Systems & embedded for SolarMobil's solar race team. Springer Nature author, three patents filed. I also make music as 2wenzy and write at desihippe.

THE INDEX — FIVE PRACTICES, ONE PERSON

↓ PICK A THREAD

01

Technology

Embedded systems, HPC, and production AI. RTL-to-GDSII silicon, FreeRTOS on Cortex-M7, agentic inference at scale.

02

Design

Interaction and brand design. Interfaces that argue a point — and convert. Trained in graphic design, UI/UX, and research.

03

Sound

2wenzy — ambient, electronic, experimental. The other language I think in. 30K+ plays across platforms.

04

Words

desihippe — politics, culture, and the ethics of the machine. Award-winning work presented at Christ University.

05

Research

Springer Nature Q1, IEEE VTC A*. Biofeedback, stochastic control, thermoelectrics, holographic interfaces.

✦ ON THE RECORD

I found my first SQL injection at sixteen and didn't know what to do with the feeling. It never quite left. I build things that can't fail — ECUs in a race car, voice agents in a hospital — and I keep asking what they cost the people on the other side of the screen. The engineering is the easy part.

OPEN TO WORK

Let's build the
things that can't fail.

Open to roles in inference infrastructure, safety-critical embedded systems, and HFT — and to design or sound collaborations that have something to say.
