## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Applied Intuition
Jan 2024 – Present | Mountain View, California, United States

### Tech lead - Flight Platform @ Spotnana
Jan 2022 – Jan 2024 | Palo Alto, California, United States
Led a team of frontend and backend engineers, designer, PM and travel industry experts to help build the flight booking platform. Helped design a fault tolerant, asynchronous, multi step API platform responsible for a majority of company revenue.

### Software Engineer @ Meta
Jan 2021 – Jan 2022 | Menlo Park, California, United States
Reality Labs: Worked on building the underlying 3D maps cloud infrastructure for powering location aware experiences in the Metaverse.

Cloud mapping and localization
- Helped build cloud based persistence and localization for Oculus maps stored on the device. The first time Oculus maps were stored on the cloud. This enabled the shared spatial anchors project, allowing multi-user games sharing common virtual objects at the same 3D location.
- Cross-functional project required coordinating 3 teams, 20+ engineers.
- Developed internal facing APIs to interact with point cloud maps and perform operations on them.

- External facing developer documentation: https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unity/unity-spatial-anchors-persist-content/

This project was key to unlocking multiple Org level OKRs:
 - Enables Oculus devices to go from room scale -> building scale -> city scale.
 - Enables map sharing cross devices for novel multi-user experiences.

- As a side project, single handedly linted 100K+ (linter coverage increased 18%) lines of C++ code in the company which finally allowed the company to default "turn on" the CLANGFORMAT linter on all future code.

### Software Engineer @ Google
Jan 2016 – Jan 2021 | Mountain View, CA
A/B Testing Platform in YouTube
- Designed and developed YouTube's near real time A/B testing analytics infrastructure, processing petabytes of data into metric insights with a latency of hours for thousands of A/B tests.
- Developed YouTube's A/B testing anomaly detection and alerting systems.
- Developed dashboards to display metric regressions for key YouTube metrics across all A/B tests.

Core infrastructure in Google Research
- Developed a machine learning workflow management system with Google Research (used by 60+ Research teams at Google)
- Helped develop the python based DSL for building workflows and an Orchestration system to deploy and run these workflows on Google's internal servers.
- Designed and developed an Angular2 + Typescript based UI to allow users to interact with their workflows.
- Currently powers 1500+ daily pipeline runs, 200+ DAUs
