About

I’m Rohit Shidid. 20-something. Indian. Building my life one project, one idea, one all-nighter at a time. I’m supposed to be “studying” Computer Engineering at NYU — but honestly, I’m learning just as much outside the classroom as I am inside it. Right now, I’m somewhere between: • writing code that actually ships • helping students decode Operating Systems as a TA • building products that don’t just work, but scale • dreaming up ventures that hit that sweet spot between tech and impact • figuring out who I’m becoming in a city that never waits A few chapters so far: I built and optimized internal trading systems at Citi — the kind traders rely on every single day. Made them faster, sharper, to the point where efficiency literally jumped 30%. That taught me a truth: performance isn’t just numbers; it’s trust. As COO of ELESPA HEV, I worked on hybrid electric solutions before they were “cool on LinkedIn.” Petrol + electric + real-world constraints = a crash course in hardware, batteries, markets, and patience. I co-founded SaveNotes because students deserve credit, ownership, and a space to learn from each other. It started small. It grew. And it showed me how powerful simple ideas can be when they solve real problems. And somewhere in between all this, Rotary happened — community work that keeps me grounded and reminds me why all this even matters. This isn’t a polished founder bio. This is the real version — unfinished, ambitious, and moving forward anyway. What I believe: • Systems > shortcuts • Tech should solve problems, not create noise • Consistency beats talent • Good ideas scale only when people do • Everyone’s improvising — the winners just iterate faster If this energy resonates, connect. Build something. Share ideas. Or just follow the journey. Either way — onward. 🚀 – Rohit

Savenotes

Co-Founder

Sep 2022Jul 2024 · 1 yr 10 mos · Maharashtra, India · Hybrid

  • SaveNotes means not only save notes but also Save Money (Pun intended ;) ) . Its design is based on the idea of making knowledge open source. When we step in, pupils aren't given the credit they deserve because their efforts aren't recognised.
  • We also Give access to all Assignments free of cost!!!
  • It can be challenging for students to locate sources for other tasks, therefore this platform allows them to share their effort and receive recognition in the form of points. With the vendors involved in the endeavour, these points will enable students to receive discounts on the things they seek.
  • Because students have limited financial resources, they search for exceptional offers to cover their costs.
