Abhineet Saha
Software Engineer
I build backend systems, developer tools, and the infrastructure that sits underneath web applications.
Most recently that meant CMS infrastructure — rendering, content modelling, and the tooling around them. Before that, mostly things I wanted to exist: a performance regression gate for Python CI, a routing engine scored on real accident data.
Work

Jan 2026 — Aug 2026Software Engineer · Independent Contractor
Multi-tenant headless CMS. Six-engineer team. I worked on the routing engine, the database layer, the test suite and the editor-facing surfaces.

Projects
Performance regression gate for Python CI · on PyPI
Fails a pull request when it makes Python code do more work. Counts function calls and lines executed instead of timing them, so the same commit on the same Python gives the same numbers every run. Published to PyPI as pyxtrace, MIT licensed.

PC lighting without vendor software · Windows
One open-source Windows app for PC lighting. It talks to supported devices directly over HID, without their vendor apps, and lists every device it can't control with the reason. Python standard library only, GPL-3.0.

Tenant-filter check for test suites · in progress
Reads the SQL your test suite actually sends and flags queries on tenant tables that have no tenant filter, with the call site. For app-layer isolation (Drizzle, Kysely, pg), not row-level security.
TypeScript · PostgreSQL
Routing scored on real accident data
Scores alternative driving routes against government road-accident records (MoRTH, NCRB, iRAD) and recommends the safest one, not just the fastest.
