Kushal Pandya developed and maintained build system modules and core infrastructure across grpc/bazel-central-registry and swiftlang/swift-corelibs-libdispatch. He released and iterated on the rules_pkl Bazel module, adding Pkl language support, cross-platform presubmit testing, and Maven artifact integration using Bazel and CMake. In the Swift repository, Kushal improved test reliability and resource management by refactoring C++ code to address race conditions and memory leaks, while also cleaning up legacy code. He enhanced portability and CI reliability in swift-corelibs-libdispatch by fixing pthread_setname_np detection in C, ensuring robust thread naming and regression test coverage across diverse Linux environments.
