Hi, I'm Ajay, and I like creating elegant software.

I'm currently a Founding Engineer at Bench Computing, where I do a bit of everything but primarily work on backend systems.

I graduated from the University of Michigan in 2024 with a BSc in Computer Science and Honors Math. Upon graduation, I joined Sutter Hill Ventures as a Codepoint Fellow-in-Residence.

Prior to all that, I grew up in Singapore and served in the Singapore Armed Forces as a B vehicle mechanic, and then went on to be an Infantry Officer. No matter where I end up, Singapore will always be home.

I love this life that we are very fortunate to have, and I hope to experience everything that life has to offer. Apart from building things, I try to read extensively as I enjoy learning about pretty much anything — philosophy, math, economics, politics, statistics, you name it. I also love animals (especially cats and dogs!), though I don't have any pets of my own yet.
