My work blends technical fluency, UX thinking, and business alignment to ship impactful B2B products. # I solve complex infra problems that block scale & adoption From self-serve data plane products on ingestion and streaming systems to observability and data governance, I’ve delivered scalable products that reduce onboarding time, improve SLAs, and accelerate value realization for enterprise data teams. I love turning abstract backend challenges into intuitive workflows and leading cross-functional teams across design, engineering, and GTM. # I’m looking to lead data or infra product teams solving hard technical problems I’m excited by roles in data, AI/ML infra, cloud platforms, or real-time data systems, where I can drive product strategy, growth loops, and technical excellence. I thrive in high-ownership environments with bold missions—delivering products that scale, drive adoption, and create real user joy.

  • Apache Pinot is a real-time distributed OLAP system that provides low-latency and high-throughput querying over PB scale datasets. It was designed for real-time analytics use cases that require sub 100 milliseconds query response times and very high real-time data ingestion. At LinkedIn, Pinot is powering more than 200+ data applications. Apache Pinot is a matured and established technology in the cloud-native real-time analytics category.
  • StarTree, the company supporting Apache Pinot community, is relentlessly focused on driving the innovation in the field of real-time user-facing analytics. StarTree has developed a large number of defensible differentiators including indexes to supercharge query processing, upserts to support data mutability, tiered storage to reduce cost of queries over large amounts of data at low latency, large number of join types and is gaining parity with ANSI SQL. StarTree also pioneered BYOC (bring your own cloud) to complement its SaaS offering to help customers take advantage of Pinot in their own cloud to supercharge user-facing analytics without much rearchitecting.

DTN Security Researcher

Jun 2012Sep 2015 · 3 yrs 3 mos · Durgapur, West Bengal, India

  • Designed the most efficient(till date) algorithm to counter-attack the misbehavior(maybe unintentional) of the relay nodes during message routing in DTN(Delay Tolerant Network).
  • Also, contributed to the strategy which makes use of trusted nodes, with special capabilities; of interacting with regular nodes to collect information about the network. Apart from this, we introduced two new strategies based on the previous ones to make trusted nodes connected using either satellite links or partial 3G links matching with the real-life networks, like post-disaster management or a military network.
  • We concluded that a connected trusted checker with a full information share strategy produces almost
  • cent percent of malicious nodes detection within 40% to 70% lesser time and lowest overhead compared to others.
  • Implemented the algorithm in The ONE( Opportunistic Network Environment simulator ) which is written in Java. Analyzed terabytes of data for the results using Python and Bash scripts and generated thousands of result graphs using GNU-PLOT.
