Hi there!
I'm Archit Dewan, a Computer Science and Mathematics student at McMaster University. I enjoy building backend systems, developer tools, and software that makes complex workflows easier to manage.
Recently, I've been contributing to Traefik, working on sticky sessions and request-path matching in its Kubernetes ingress provider. My projects span API reliability, incident response, and automation, primarily using Go, Python, and PostgreSQL.
I also like taking software beyond the screen. At Hack the North, I helped build Surge Prep, a surgical-training prototype combining computer vision, a physical tool, and a Unity simulation.
Here are a few of the technologies I use to build projects:
Go
PostgreSQL
Python
Git
Docker

- Implemented adaptive sticky-session cookie handling across three load-balancing strategies, with compatibility tests for legacy browsers.
- Fixed ingress-nginx path matching for the NGINX prefix modifier, added regression tests, and documented supported behavior.
Some things I've built
Incident Response
Built a Go, PostgreSQL, and Python system that turns alerts into incidents, Slack briefs, timelines, and postmortem drafts
API Monitor Dashboard
Built a Go and PostgreSQL dashboard that monitors API health, latency, and failures

Have a project in mind, an opportunity to share, or just want to talk software? I'd love to hear from you.
