I am currently a Lead Research Engineer at SLK in Bangalore, following the acquisition of V-Labs. Prior to this, I served as a Senior Research Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur and began my career as an Assistant Systems Engineer at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) in Hyderabad.
I hold a Ph.D. and M.Tech in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kanpur, where I worked under the guidance of Dr. Ketan Rajawat. My doctoral research, supported in part by the Intel India PhD Fellowship (2016–2019), focused on stochastic optimization and large-scale machine learning. During this time, I was also an active member of the Signal Processing in Networks (SPiN) Lab.
