Rounak Longani/Software Engineer
I’m a software engineer and product builder. I like taking things from this could be useful to people actually use this.
Most of my best work started as a side project, got slightly out of hand, and eventually shipped.
Right now: building agent systems at Cognizant, running a tutoring platform in Pune, and making whatever tiny tool I can’t stop thinking about.
I like building things more than talking about building things.
I'm a software engineer who learns by making stuff.
Give me a blank repo, a slightly unreasonable idea, and enough time, and I'll probably turn it into something that works.
My work sits somewhere between product engineering, backend systems, AI, and whatever problem I'm currently curious about.
What I do
I build full-stack products end to end - from the interface people touch to the APIs, data pipelines, agent systems, and infrastructure underneath.
How I work
Build > break > understand > simplify > ship.
I prototype early, keep abstractions small, and don't mind throwing code away when the idea gets clearer.
The goal isn't the prettiest architecture. It's software that earns its complexity.
Right now
I'm a Developer at Cognizant, building agent systems with LangGraph and LangChain.
Outside work: Building TutorUp in Pune, plus Peeky Notes and CommitWall whenever I get another idea I can't leave alone.

Things I've shipped.
Small apps. Big systems. Random experiments.
If it exists here, I probably spent an unreasonable amount of time making it.
Built with some good people.
Companies, startups and teams I've had the pleasure of breaking production with.
