Hello, I'm

Bismit Panda

Co-Founder & CTO

I build security and AI products end to end, mostly in Rust, Go, and TypeScript.

About

I'm Co-Founder and CTO of AstraQ Cyber Defence. I designed Athena, our CTF platform, which ran Athena CTF 2026 for 1,200+ players. I also lead work on Morpheus for malware analysis, Phoebe for search over company data, Athena LMS, and the Metis mail client.

Separately, I'm the only developer at OpenVenture (formerly Greencard Inc.), where I've shipped 10+ production apps for immigration, hiring, admissions, PR, and EB-5 financing.

Most of my backend work is in Rust and Go. I write about some of it here.
