We’re building ByteAsk because coding agents still fail on C and C++. We met at IIT Delhi, spent years in this stack, and started the company so an agent would have to prove its work against the compiler, the sanitizers, gdb, and the tests.
Co-founder, CEO
Leads product, customers, and native C and C++ tooling.
IIT Delhi · Quantbox · Optiver
Built a Python-to-C++ transpiler at Quantbox that took production strategy code from 1.5 seconds to 150 nanoseconds. Interned on Optiver's delta-one desk.
Spent months with C++ engineers at trading firms before we wrote the product.
Co-founder, CTO
Leads the harness, retrieval, benchmarks, and model training.
IIT Delhi · Simbian · ThirdAI
Founding engineer at Simbian, building AI security agents that handle over a million incidents a year. At ThirdAI he led CPU-first training and inference, including the Bolt engine.
Built the C and C++ evals from public tests and from real firmware bugs.
We are a small, people-first team. Collaboration over hierarchy, honesty over politics, and ownership over hours at a desk. We talk to customers ourselves, we help each other when the work is hard, and we hire people we respect enough to trust with a real piece of the product.
We are hiring a founding C++ systems engineer. Hours overlapping San Francisco.
