Early life
Nitheesh Rajendran is an Indian entrepreneur and software developer from Tamil Nadu, India. An early interest in computers, design and the internet moved from building websites to building complete software products, mobile applications and AI-powered tools.
Career
He began professionally as a freelance web developer, building sites and digital products for businesses and startups, then expanded into full-stack engineering, mobile development, UI/UX design, cloud deployment and artificial intelligence. His work spans business websites, e-commerce platforms, AI applications, automation tools, custom dashboards and enterprise software.
Building Setups Works Lab
Setups Works Lab grew out of a specific problem he kept seeing: strong engineers losing offers to interview format rather than ability. It pairs a deep problem bank and an instant multi-language compiler with AI mentoring, spaced repetition and skill analytics — practice that adapts to the person doing it. It is built and operated under Setups Works, the digital agency he founded and leads.
Security research
Alongside development he researches web application security — authentication and API security, secure development practices, the OWASP Top 10 and vulnerability analysis. He follows responsible disclosure: issues found in publicly accessible applications are reported privately to the organisation concerned rather than published.
Filmmaking
Outside software he directs and writes short films, with credits listed on IMDb. He treats creativity and engineering as complementary — the same instinct for structure and pacing that shapes a short film shapes a product.
