Samridh Anand

Software engineer with 1+ years of experience in distributed systems, backend and security. I test and harden distributed database systems at Couchbase, publish security research, and build LLM developer tooling that gets used in production.

Obsessed with progress. Adventurous, fitness focused, and always chasing a better number. Running, HYROX, and whatever comes next.

What I am like

Adventurous

Always up for something new, and happy to be out of my comfort zone.

Obsessed with progress

I like things I can measure, and I keep chasing a better number. Running and HYROX are where most of it goes.

Up for a challenge

I pick things that are hard on purpose, then train until they are not.

Multi-agent RAG framework for vulnerability detection and repair C and C++ source goes through three LLM agents in turn: attack vector identification, vulnerability detection and remediation. The loop repeats until no vulnerabilities remain or an attempt limit is reached, then outputs patched code. Detection and remediation retrieve context from a ChromaDB store built from MITRE's Top 25 CWEs.

Progress is the point. I like things I can measure, and I keep chasing a better number.

Running and HYROX are where it shows up most.

About

I am a software engineer with 1+ years of experience in Quality Engineering, making sure software meets release standards and reliability requirements. My work is testing distributed systems at scale and building the automation and tooling around it.

I graduated in 2025 with a B.E. in Computer Science, specialising in Computer Networks and Security, from PES University. My final-year research was published at ICCCT 2025.
