Prasenjit Paul

About

I'm Prasenjit Paul — engineer, investor, entrepreneur, philosopher. I retired at 32, and since then the job description is simple: do whatever I find interesting. Based in Bengaluru, India. Somewhere along the way I figured out how to have a mind that doesn't speak — most of what I write starts in that silence.

The investing side: twelve-plus years of professional investing, now as CIO of Seeker Capital, my own firm. The tagline is growth that sustains, which is also a fair summary of the strategy — long-term capital behind durable businesses and asymmetric ideas.

The engineering side: fifteen-plus years of building — software engineer at Tavisca Solutions, engineer lead at RentoMojo, co-founder of imorph, architect at Anatta. My latest endeavor is building AI products, which gives me a practitioner's view of the technology most investors only see from the outside. Before this site, I wrote for years at Void Canvas, my technical blog on JavaScript and web engineering.

The rest is curiosity. The X bio version reads: Technology, Physics, Business, Macroeconomics, Biology, Evolution & Philosophy! — and this site is where those threads get pulled. Expect essays in four categories: engineering, investing, health, and philosophy — usually where two of those overlap.

Now — current projects

Off the desk

Markets close, deploys finish. The rest is India by road, salt deserts, lakes, and chai with people I like.
