About

Hello everyone!!

I am Sanchayan Maity and my life revolves around electronics, programming, music and books. Long term goals are to learn Haskell, compilers, Mathematics and operating/distributed systems in depth.

Used to live in Mumbai and worked as an Embedded Systems Engineer from July 2010 to 2012 at Godrej Security Solutions, a sub division of Godrej & Boyce Mfg. Co. Ltd. Settled in Bangalore now. Worked at Toradex from 2013-2017 as a Development Engineer on Linux for their downstream BSP while also making upstream contributions. Spend two years at Harman International where I worked on custom Linux FPGA driver for a frame grabber system. Currently am working at asymptotic.io where my work mostly involves working with GStreamer and also Pipewire and Pulseaudio. Was lucky enough to get to work on Haskell for 8 months for a client as my very first assignment.

Am passionate about open source and also organise and speak at the Bangalore Haskell and Rust meetup groups. Come say hello.
