Hello
Welcome to my little corner on the interwebs 🕸️
Name, pronunciation, and pronouns
I am Amanjeev Sethi (pronounced /ə.mən.d͡ʒiːʋ/ /seɪʈʰiː/). Other names I am known by: AJ or Aman (pronounced /ə.mən/).
My pronouns are "he/him".
Some details
Some of you may know me from tech, especially Rustlang or federated and distributed genomics. Maybe you have seen some of my photography work online.
I find myself naturally drawn to seeing what needs to be done, working with invested stakeholders to develop a plan of action, and executing. I constantly strive to support team members with any help they need. I am experienced in explaining complex concepts. Did I tell you that I am also a prolific yak shaver? 😁
I am interested in building safer programs and languages, privacy-oriented systems, scientific (and adjacent) software and service development, and local governance and policy. I enjoy hacking on embedded-systems projects, in Rust.
Hire me to resolve hurdles from your projects.
Whereabouts
I live in Toronto, the land of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. As a new settler, I am still learning a lot about the history of this land and its peoples. I think the land acknowledgement is the bare-minimum and is just the starting point. Acknowledging this should not be the end of efforts for healing and justice.
