Experience

2018 - 2019
drishti
Software Engineer
I worked on a few systems while at Drishti. The largest piece of work I drove was a video stream multiplexer. Drishti needed to safely stream data from remote cameras, archive them and feed them to processing pipelines. Additionally archives needed to be reprocessed sometimes and also needed to be served through frontends in various queryable pieces. I designed, implemented and deployed the technology assets for effecting this component. I also designed, implemented and deployed a video archival and query system in production. Security for ensuring safety of all technology assets. There were some missing security pieces and my work here involved piecemeal configuration layouts and assets surface minimization. I built a REST API service for returning some assets. This was behind a comprehensive enterprise security policy. The existing API service had some deficiencies which was also causing slowness in the frontends. The RESTful paradigm fixed some of the related issues. I designed, implemented and deployed this to production. Instituted some good engineering practices like code reviews, reduced meetings and contributed to some major architectural choices. I also took part in scripting and edge deployment components at some customer sites and integrated their VPN solutions. Show less
2017 - 2017
teamindus axiom research labs
Consulting Engineer
Axiom Research Labs is working in the domain of Aerospace Engineering. My work here involved two major components other than minor snippets of work. First work involved doing a broad architectural overview of the various software components. Second was a moderate-complexity refactoring of a large model representing the GLXP mission software. Lastly I was required to make a number of technical recommendations across various sub projects.
2016 - 2018
adori labs
Head Of Engineering
I was involved in all engineering design decisions and laying out the engineering roadmap. I primarily built the Backend and laid out and tuned production environment and servers. I oversaw frontend developments in my limited capacity.
2014 - 2017
streamoid
Consulting Engineer
Streamoid works in real images problem space (augmentation, identification, understanding etc.). As part of my limited consulting effort I have consulted Streamoid on a semi-regular basis. As part of this I have advised on all matters relating to deployment and backends. Other than that I have built and deployed standalone modules on various occasions. These include logging service for analytics, an API service for using their core similarity systems, NLP and general development. A large focused piece of work I oversaw was the design and architecture of Wellfit. This is a service to make outfit recommendations for a submitted user image. For this I built a repository of expert data and combined that with similarity matching to make recommendations. It required a fairly substantive re-engineering of the core database and the core data processing pipelines. I did the entire re-design and implementation for this effort. This service is now in production and being updated and deployed to live customers. Show less
2014 - 2017
selfemployed
Independent Professional
I spent not more than 2 days a week on consulting projects. During the course of these assignments I took on 5-6 clients with varying composition of short and long term projects. Most of the projects have been in large scale systems and infrastructure design and implementation.
2013 - 2014
zendrive
Engineer
Zendrive was a very early stage startup when I joined (still is for the most part). One of the earliest engineers to join the company I was involved in architecting and building most of the systems. As part of this I revamped the backend store for the incoming stream of data. I was involved in almost all engineering design discussions and helped out in designing the core engineering output of the next few months which was an IOS based SDK for Zendrive's potential partners. Next I reapplied most of the same design to build an SDK for android platform as well. Instituted good engineering practices like code reviews and design decisions walk throughs with everyone involved in the code. Being one of the earliest engineers I was also heavily involved in hiring operations. Show less
2012 - 2013
cloudinfra
Founder
cloudinfra.in is a company attempting to bring linux tools to the cloud. The premise is that sysadmins have extensive knowledge of *nix tools and how to use them to solve problems in single machine systems. Cloudinfra is trying to build a platform which will make these tools available over a distributed set of machines for distributed logs in a seamless efficient manner. As founding engineer I was involved in all engineering design and implementation along with all business decisions. The company was part of the first Microsoft accelerator batch where we got decent exposure and made tremendous progress in building out our infrastructure. Show less
2007 - 2012
google
Software Engineer
I worked in the Ads team for the entire time I was with Google. During my time there I helped build large scale distributed systems for stats processing, analysis, keyword suggestion among other things. Prominent among these systems was the Adwords 3 and Adwords report center backends. These backends had extremely low latency and high load requirements and required interacting and replacing large number of components. They required looking up customer campaign and account data and stats information in realtime against complex queries entered in the frontends. We used a hybrid approach of pre-compute + predictive cache. Adwords 3 won the OC award in 2009. Another system I helped build was one of the revisions of the Keyword suggestion tool system which was used by advertisers and campaign managers to build and enhance campaigns. This system and the backends used to build models used in this system required a lot of fine tuning. The serving system itself required looking up a large amount of data and doing complex analysis to return usable keyword suggestions. Show less
