Arunkumar Sugadevan — Co-Founder
Self-taught developer. 15+ years in the game. No CS degree. B.Tech in Mechatronics, M.Sc in Robotics — then taught myself to code and never looked back. Currently: Tech Lead at MediaMarktSaturn Technology, building mobile solutions that ship to stores across Europe. Solo built (before AI coding was a thing): → Blacktail.ai — all-in-one generative AI platform on Solana (image, video, music, chat) → Soulofox — blockchain game on Solana, raised $500K+, entire tech stack end-to-end No vibe coding. No AI agents. Just caffeine and Stack Overflow. My stack: → React, React Native, TypeScript, NextJS → Solana DApps & Rust smart contracts → AI-powered tools and workflows Now I'm deep in the AI coding space - exploring how agents and automation are changing how we build software. I write about shipping fast, building in public, and the self-taught developer journey. Based in Bonn, Germany.
