Naresh Kothavandla · Technical product builder
I work across product structure, application implementation, infrastructure and deployment—turning ideas into working systems and making the pieces fit together.
Selected work
These are projects I have taken from an idea into substantial working systems. Detailed evidence and live demonstrations are being added deliberately rather than exposing private repositories.
Product building

Flagship case study in preparation
Product + domain systems
Farm-to-consumer commerce platform focused on real supply, freshness, pricing, quoting, order flows and operational administration.
Case study in preparation
Private AI systems
Private personal-AI platform connecting persistent services, local GPU inference, controlled capabilities and operational recovery.
Sanitized systems case study in preparation
Platform + operations
Self-hosted development and operations environment spanning Linux, virtualization, networking, containers, CI and observability.
Sanitized infrastructure case study in preparation
What I do
Turn an idea into a structured web product with user-facing flows, application boundaries and data-backed features.
Connect application code to Linux, Docker, reverse proxies, domains, PostgreSQL and repeatable deployment workflows.
Use GitHub, CI/CD, health checks and release discipline to make changes easier to verify, ship and recover.
Trace problems across application, database, network and infrastructure layers instead of treating each layer in isolation.
How I work
AI coding assistants such as ChatGPT and Codex are part of my implementation, research and debugging workflow. I combine them with Git-based change control, testing, documentation and hands-on system verification.
My strongest work happens where product decisions, application architecture and operations meet: understanding what needs to exist, how the parts connect, what can fail, and how to prove the resulting system works.
Current focus
I am currently packaging selected Rikaha Labs projects into public case studies and preparing focused freelance services around web-product implementation, Linux/Docker deployment and CI/CD.
