About

Currently working as a SWE at Rippling. We are building a realtime query processing platform. I'm interested in topics related to Computer Vision, Computer Graphics and Backend Engineering. I have previously worked at Snap Inc as a MLE intern working on building their mesh construction pipeline, at Rippling building their infrastructure for third party data and workflow actions and at Microsoft Research as a research fellow working on different applied research problems. My email - pochhi.nilay@gmail.com. Please feel free to reach out if you need any help, have some opportunities for me or just want to have a chat. :)
