Shivram Sambhus

Systems Engineer ⌐■_■

Studying CS at ETH Zurich. I work across the stack to solve hard problems, from full-stack and security to distributed systems, HPC and infrastructure. I'm stack-agnostic; the goal is always to find the right tool for the job. I like going wide to see how everything fits together and deep into the metal exactly when execution speed matters. 🇨🇭

Always open to chatting about systems, exploring new ideas or discussing interesting opportunities. You can reach me via Email or find me on GitHub·LinkedIn·X.
