Real-time & low-latency systems
Kernel-bypass networking, FPGA data paths, and lock-free cores that hold sub-50µs latency under real load — not just on a benchmark.

Santanu K.Edge AI & Computer Vision Engineer
I build smart devices that think on their own — cameras that detect intruders, sensors that predict failure, and systems that work anywhere, even without the cloud.
- I prevent security risks with smart cameras
- I cut costs by running AI on cheap hardware
- I build tools that work offline — perfect for tough environments
YOLO detection, people counting, and ONVIF camera systems on Jetson, Raspberry Pi, Rockchip & Qualcomm — real-time at 30fps, edge-only.

Real-time detection, edge hardware
Performance figures are measured under standard laboratory conditions without external loads — actual results depend on hardware, model complexity and deployment requirements.

Deep systems work, delivered
Three areas where I go deep. Each engagement includes architecture review, implementation, and knowledge transfer so your team owns it after I leave.
Edge AI & computer vision
Model optimization and deployment on constrained hardware — Jetson, Coral, custom ARM64 — running real-time inference at the edge, offline-safe.

Distributed data platforms
Streaming pipelines and stateful services engineered for exactly-once semantics, geo-replication, and automatic failover at scale.

What teams say
Feedback from teams I've worked with across the US, UK, and EU — names anonymised, systems real.
Santanu cut our matching latency 60% and shipped on schedule with zero downtime during migration. The documentation is the best I've seen from a contractor in years.
We needed 4K people counting on hardware we were told couldn't handle it. He optimized the whole pipeline end-to-end and accuracy went up 3%.
We brought him in to review our streaming stack before a big launch. He found issues we'd been chasing for a year, and the system has been rock solid since.
He rebuilt our vision pipeline for a 200-camera rollout in three weeks. We went from prototype to production with zero rewrites and half the hardware budget.
