Who I am

Hi, I’m Swaroop.

I was the kid who rooted phones. I flashed them, got into the system, and wanted to see what was really happening in there. That never went away.

I love building things. Software first, and now agents and the harnesses around them, which is the most interested I’ve been in anything.

I care how things look, too. I designed and built the Breeze Buddy website and this one, and I’m learning the principles behind what my eye already likes.

By instinct I go wide. I’d rather know how the whole thing works than own one corner of it. What I’ve been learning for a while now is the other half: going deep on the things I pick.

I joined Juspay as an intern in 2022 and stayed. I started on checkout, the unglamorous parts that decide whether a parcel arrives, then moved to voice. In 2025 I started Breeze Buddy from an empty repo.

How I build things

Most problems are already solved. I start there.

  1. 01

    Look first.

    Most problems are already solved somewhere. I find what exists before I build what doesn’t.

  2. 02

    Keep it simple.

    I stick to the basics. The simplest thing that works usually wins, and I stop there.

  3. 03

    Think like a human.

    Map a problem to how people and nature already work, and the answer tends to show up.

  4. 04

    Reason it through.

    Why comes before how. If I can’t explain a decision plainly, I’m not ready to build it.

  5. 05

    Start with the consumer.

    I begin with the person who will use it and work back to the code, never the other way.

  6. 06

    Build for impact.

    Shipping isn’t the goal. I want to make things that change something for someone.

Away from the keyboard

Off the clock: bike, water, kitchen.

  1. 01

    A half Ironman, next year.

    I do hybrid training. The gym four or more days a week, then the swim, the bike and the run on top.

  2. 02

    Beaches and open water.

    Open-water swimming is the part I love most and the part I have the most to improve in.

  3. 03

    I cook.

    North Indian, South Indian, nearly all of it. I’m a big foodie, and biryani is the one I’d die for.

  4. 04

    North or South Indian food?

    North Indian food or South Indian. I cook both and I lean South. Tell me I’m wrong. And if you cycle, say hello.

About this site

This site is one cloud of points that never stops reshaping. It’s set in Anek, a typeface drawn as one family across the scripts my agents speak, with Martian Mono for the small print.

Say hello

Your turn.

Building with voice, agents or real-time systems? Or you ride? Either way, I’d like to hear from you.
