Akash Gupta — Software Engineer

I’m currently working on Adobe Express Photos for Windows, a product used by millions of users globally, where I focus on building high-performance, scalable, and intelligent photo editing experiences.Within the team, I drive improvements in CFU (Crash Free Users), startup performance, and overall app responsiveness, ensuring a seamless experience from launch to export. My work spans deep systems-level optimization to user-facing feature design.I’ve:Designed and implemented doodling algorithms from scratch, integrating them into a production-grade rendering pipelineImproved the crop experience, balancing mathematical correctness (transform spaces, scaling, rotation, constraints) with intuitive UXContributed end-to-end across the core C++ editing engine, enabling and extending multiple photo editing capabilities within a non-destructive pipelineWorked across rendering, memory management, performance profiling, and feature integrationCurrently, I’m building GenAI-powered workflows that integrate directly into the existing editing pipeline — ensuring they remain non-destructive, performant, and production-ready, rather than bolt-on features.I operate at the intersection of:Systems engineeringHigh-performance Windows application developmentImaging and rendering pipelinesApplied AI in real-world productsI care deeply about performance, correctness, architecture quality, and delivering features that scale to millions of users.
