Ritesh K. — Co-Founder

Building scalable AI & Web3 systems at the intersection of intelligent agents and decentralized infrastructure. I’m Ritesh Khamitkar — a Backend, AI, and Blockchain Engineer focused on architecting production-grade systems across multi-chain Web3 and agentic AI. I specialize in designing systems that are not just functional, but scalable, secure, and production-ready from day one. What I do: • Architect backend systems using NestJS, FastAPI, and microservices patterns • Build multi-chain infrastructure across Ethereum (L1/L2), Solana, and Bitcoin • Develop non-custodial wallet systems, smart contracts, and DeFi integrations • Design agentic AI systems using ADK, MCP, RAG pipelines, Mem0, and LlamaIndex • Implement real-time data pipelines using Kafka, gRPC, WebSockets, and event-driven systems Experience highlights: • Built and scaled multi-chain DeFi infrastructure with wallet systems, swaps, yield integrations, and on/off-ramps • Engineered agentic AI platforms with multi-agent orchestration and production LLM pipelines • Developed DEX automation systems with smart routing, mempool monitoring, and execution strategies • Worked on distributed AI systems and large-scale data pipelines in production environments Tech I work with: NestJS · TypeScript · Python · FastAPI · Solidity · Ethers.js · Bitcoin · Solana · PostgreSQL · Prisma · Kafka · Neo4j · Pinecone · Docker · AWS · GCP · Turnkey · LI.FI · Bridge · JWT My approach: I focus on speed + quality — shipping production-ready systems fast using strong architecture, clean abstractions, and modern tooling. I prefer building real systems applying theoretical research with AI assisted development. If you're building in AI, Web3, or at their intersection - happy to connect and collaborate.
