Built from first principles.
Two co-founders. 20+ years of combined engineering experience. One who builds from the kernel up, one who designs from the human side down. This is how we got here.
The full stack — from silicon to human
Most software vendors have engineers who work at the application layer. Some have engineers who work at the systems layer. Very few have both: co-founders who have independently proven it at demanding companies.
Ashish brings CMU-trained systems engineering depth: he has built an OS kernel from scratch, implemented TCP from scratch, written distributed consensus algorithms, contributed patches that merged into FreeBSD mainline, and shipped embedded software at Tesla where hardware-software integration failures have physical consequences.
Tanveer brings the applied layer: formal HCI research at the University of Konstanz (Germany), whose master's thesis is specifically about how to design VR training systems that accelerate skill acquisition, defence-adjacent AI systems delivered to clients, and product engineering experience in complex enterprise software where human usability is not optional.
The two skillsets are complementary in the exact way that complex system development requires. One founder who can build what runs under the hood. One who can design what humans actually use. For systems where both software correctness and human usability are mission-critical, this is not a nice-to-have combination. It is the requirement.
How we think about software
We believe software quality is an engineering discipline, not a product feature. It is the outcome of hiring people who have worked in environments where getting it wrong has consequences, and who carry that discipline into every subsequent project, regardless of the stakes.
“The most important thing about a system is not whether it works the first time. It is whether it keeps working: under load, under failure, under the conditions no one anticipated.”
Our founders have worked in High-Frequency Trading, where a slow trade means a lost trade and software correctness is measured in microseconds. At Tesla, where hardware-software integration failures have physical consequences. At Panasonic, where errors cascade across supply chains touching millions of people. That experience is not a credential to put on a slide. It is the origin of how we reason about reliability, testing, and systems correctness.
India needs software companies that take reliability seriously. Not just as a market differentiator, but as a fundamental commitment to the people who depend on the systems we build. Bitnibblr exists to be one of those companies.
The engineers behind the work
Ashish Gupta
Co-founder & Systems Engineer
Education
- Master of Science, Computer Science & Engineering
Industry Experience
- Systems Engineer — Tesla (embedded & automation software)
- Software Engineer — High-Frequency Trading (where a slow trade means a lost trade)
- Engineer — Panasonic (global supply chain platforms)
Specialisation
“I have shipped software where a slow trade means a lost trade (High-Frequency Trading), where a software bug can have physical consequences (Tesla), and where an error cascades across operations touching millions of people (Panasonic). That shapes everything I build.”
Tanveer Singh Mahendra
Co-founder & Product Engineer
Education
- B.Tech, Information Technology Engineering
- M.Sc, Human-Computer Interaction, University of Konstanz, Germany
Industry Experience
- Senior UX Designer — Enterprise Supply Chain Software
- Product Engineer — Complex Operational Systems
Specialisation
“I hold both a systems engineering background and a formal master's in HCI from the University of Konstanz, Germany — one of very few engineers in India with that combination. It produces interfaces for high-stakes environments that actually work under pressure. My master's thesis was specifically about how to design VR training systems that accelerate skill acquisition without an expert trainer present. That research now informs how we design simulation systems for defence and industrial clients.”
