About

I'm Dvip Patel, a full-stack engineer who works the entire stack in the literal sense: from Linux systems and serial wires at the bottom to production AI pipelines at the top.

Most of my work lives where software meets hardware and where downtime isn't an option — resilient real-time monitoring systems that talk to factory devices over RS485/COM and WiFi IoT, and real-time computer-vision pipelines that have to hold a frame budget, not just a benchmark score.

I run Arch Linux as my daily driver (btw), which is less a personality trait and more a commitment to understanding every layer I depend on.
