Worked as a virtual technical lead on LCS Solutions a born-in-the cloud Azure based multi-tenant service that empowers Microsoft partners and ISVs with the ability to create and market templatized Software-as-a-service ERP implementations targeting specific verticals / localizations. These solutions are curated by Microsoft thus driving a greater degree of predictability and repeatability in the ERP implementations. As a part of this I have been responsible for driving requirements, architecting the system ground up in addition to the actual implementation and delivery of the product. Analysts and partners have recognized LCS Solutions (AX apps) as a very differentiated & integrated experience that is way ahead of the competitors in the space.

Research Intern
Worked as a research intern in the Machine Learning and Intelligence group at Microsoft Research, Redmond. Developed ErrorExplorer, a visualization and analysis tool for prediction accuracy optimization to support production deployments of machine learning algorithms. The tool is designed to be predictor and domain-independent and can be used with a wide variety of prediction tasks and arbitrary learning algorithms. This was follwed by a redesign of a generic machine learning experimentation framework that involves addition of an adaptively extendible (reflection-based) GUI and support for distributed execution on HPC clusters.
