Professional History

Senior Software Engineer — Google
2025 — Present

Architect and scale the core Filtering Platform to enable internal clients, such as Gemini, to enforce legal and regulatory compliance.

Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, research, and legal stakeholders to design and deploy robust, low-latency data policy guardrails.

Software Engineer — Google
2021 — 2025

Engineered distributed indexing pipelines processing petabytes of web data, improving the system to purge low-value and duplicate pages to measurably elevate search result quality.

Optimized data pipelines to accelerate search ranking signal refresh cycles from weeks to days, drastically improving data freshness.

Software Development Engineer II — Amazon SageMaker
2019 — 2021

Built SageMaker Processing APIs and orchestration layers for distributed ML tasks.

Engineered API integrations connecting SageMaker processing services with AWS Athena, AWS Redshift, and Snowflake

Developed SageMaker backend services for large-scale training and high-throughput inference.

Graduate Teaching Assistant — UC San Diego
2018 — 2019

Delivered instruction, managed code evaluations, and designed exercise sessions covering Statistical Learning math paradigms (ECE-271 A) and Pattern Recognition algorithm implementations (ECE-175 A).

Graduate Researcher — Statistical Visual Computing Lab
2018

Built spatial scale inference modules connecting a Mask R-CNN foundation directly into a parallel Siamese deep learning layout to deduce target structural variables. Managed crowdsourced parsing arrays using Mechanical Turk infrastructure to acquire bespoke validation datasets.

Research Intern — HTIC, IIT Madras
2016 — 2017

Constructed data evaluation engines tracking 9-axis spatial IMU systems to map biomechanical stroke profile movements. Built isolated micro-state analysis layers identifying real-time physical stress markers via multi-channel EDA and HRV signals.

Academic Research & Publications

Projects

Captioning & Retrieval

Coupled ResNet-152 visual layers with recurrent LSTM cells to execute complex sequential context parsing and automated contextual item matching.

Mathematical Parser

Constructed structural character localization networks paired with Random Forest classifiers to segment and parse handwritten equations.

IMDB Metrics Engine

Evaluated extensive graph data configurations to compute demographic analytics and build fast collaborative item-filtering recommender clusters.

Contextual Classifier

Implemented TF-IDF transformation matrices alongside Latent Dirichlet Allocation models to track text anomaly vectors.

Matrix Recommendation

Applied matrix factorization and hidden factor models to predict user preference profiles within dense commercial networks.

Universal Portfolio Engine

Coded recursive multi-asset portfolio balancing loops derived from Cover's Universal Portfolio formulations to evaluate historical data.
