Vinay Kumar Tiwari

I'm a full-stack engineer from India, online everywhere as vinaytz. For the last three years I've been building web products — for clients, for the teams I've worked with, and for myself.

Right now I'm a developer at Denthinkers Foundation, where I built the donation module and the admin authentication behind a live platform that has processed ₹1.5L+ in verified donations. I'm also starting my MCA at IIT Patna, and building Locus.

The part that doesn't fit neatly on a CV: I build things that fly. A quadcopter, and an F-117 Nighthawk, both from scratch. I also built an AI assistant that runs entirely offline on a phone, because I wanted to know whether it could be done inside a 2GB memory budget. It can.

Things that fly

Software forgives a lot. A badly balanced airframe does not — which is exactly why I keep building them.
