About

I am deeply passionate about understanding customer requirements and developing products and technologies that match their needs. I like to lead as an exemplary practitioner and deliver projects from inception to delivery. As a Senior Software Engineer, I have worked on a diverse range of systems, including IoT computing, Cloud computing, and big data analytics. In AWS Organization, I successfully led the development of two critical AWS services: CloudWatch Evidently and Application Signals. My expertise lies in defining scope, architecture, and leading development efforts from inception to delivery. Additionally, I mentor other engineers, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment. Previously at Amazon's Last Mile Organization, I developed an IoT product that connects fleet of delivery vehicles. This product ran computer vision algorithms on devices installed in the delivery vehicles, securely and reliably streaming video and other telemetry data to the cloud. The collected data was utilized to enhance Amazon's delivery efficiency.

Led Development of CloudWatch Evidently and Application Signals AWS Services.
Cloudwatch Evidently makes it easy for developers to introduce experiments and feature management in their application code. It may be used for two similar but distinct use-cases: implementing dark launches, also known as feature flags, and A/B testing.
CloudWatch Application Signals automatically instruments customer applications, allowing users to monitor current application health and track long-term application performance against their business objectives. Application Signals provides users with a unified, application-centric view of their applications, services, and dependencies, helping them monitor and triage application health.
