I am currently a Staff Software Engineer at Color, where I contribute in the Core Services team who are responsible for core frameworks like billing, auth, faxing, emails, and more. I'm also a part of the company's Frontend Guild which is primarily focused on maintaining our frontend codebase and pipelines and also setting to company standards for our various frontends.
I have previously worked in the Payments and Civics teams at Google when I have contributed to Google's invoice document generation pipeline which is responsible invoicing a majority of Google's B2C and B2B revenue across the globe. I've also worked on the ETL pipeline which goes into service Political data on Google Search. Before that I've worked as a contractor for the Energy Information Administration working on Analysis and Projection and the Short-Term Energy Outlook Data Browser.
I obtained my degree in Computer Science from UMD while also taking courses in Philosophy and competing in many Hackathons.
I also have a lot of curiosity and interest in the devops / developer velocity space. I like to tinker with build tools and other repository setup projects and libraries.
As a first-generation immigrant, my family moved from India to the United States in 2006 to provide better educational opportunities for my siblings and I. This unique cultural background has significantly influenced my personal and professional life, as I strive to balance the values of my Indian heritage with American culture.
Woodworking is currently my primary hobby outside of tech, but I also like gaming, hiking, biking, and snowboarding.
