About

At Broadcom Software, my focus was on re-architect the complete build systems to optimize software development processes. Leveraging my expertise in Bazel and Skylark, developed advanced tooling for kernel and userworld libraries, ensuring streamlined compilation and deployment. My recent role at VMware honed my skills in software infrastructure and remote procedure call mechanisms, where I led significant system migrations. My team's efforts have resulted in more efficient builds and have set a precedent for future projects that demand cutting-edge technical solutions and a meticulous approach to software engineering. Harish has developed expertise in training and managing small-scale image and text generation models throughout the AI model lifecycle, conducting experiments and optimizations locally. He has extensive experience evaluating model performance across diverse hardware configurations, including CPU, MPS (Metal Performance Shaders), XPU, TPU, and NVIDIA GPUs. His technical proficiency includes deploying and running large-scale models such as OpenAI's GPT-oss-20b and other advanced architectures in local environments. Additionally, Harish has honed his skills in prompt engineering, leveraging strategic techniques to enhance model outputs and optimize interactions with AI systems
