Backend engineer. I build distributed systems and AI developer tooling.

This is my work account. I build the Trust Identity Protocol (TIP) ecosystem at theailaborg, a content-provenance platform with cryptographic signing, juror-based dispute resolution, and Merkle-anchored canonical state.

• tip-protocol: the public protocol core (nodes, canonical state, dispute resolution)
• The TIP SDK, browser extension, AI content classifier, protocol node, verification-provider apps, mobile web app, and WordPress plugin (private org repos)
• ML and data tooling: PII redaction, LLM inference toolkit, research-paper extraction and metadata pipelines, audio transcription

• PR #69: moved a slow classifier out of the request path into an async worker pipeline with status polling
• PR #72: fixed canonical-state resets so Merkle roots stay consistent across nodes
• Boot-time claim recovery for worker queues, failover correctness for permanently degraded sources, and plain-language UX for commit-reveal voting

Personal work lives at @tushar-a-b, including ship-and-tell: an MCP server and Claude Code skill that turns your local AI coding sessions into tweets and articles, with no external API calls.
