Abhishek Zade — Software Engineer
I’m a Software Engineer with a Distinction (1.1) MSc in Computer Science (Intelligent Systems) from Trinity College Dublin, where I specialised in Distributed Systems, Advanced Software Engineering, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning. My dissertation, “ConvGRU-Enhanced Recurrent YOLOv8 for Event-Based Object Detection,” developed an efficient recurrent deep-learning framework for real-time detection using event cameras. By integrating ConvGRU modules into the YOLOv8 backbone and employing Volume of Ternary Event Image (VTEI) encoding, the system achieved up to 40% lower computational cost and faster training while maintaining state-of-the-art accuracy on the PEDRo dataset advancing intelligent perception for robotics and autonomous systems. At Jio Platforms Limited, I engineered and deployed containerised NestJS/Node.js microservices sustaining tens of thousands of daily requests with 99.9% uptime. I automated Kafka- and Redis-based data pipelines, reducing manual reporting by 40%, and improved system observability with Grafana, Prometheus, and Sentry, accelerating incident detection and recovery. As a Google Summer of Code contributor with CircuitVerse, I delivered advanced mobile touch and interaction features used by over 50,000 monthly users and mentored new developers, strengthening the open-source community. Proficient in C++, Go, Python, Node.js, TypeScript/JavaScript, and Java, with experience across AWS, Azure, and GCP using Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and CI/CD automation. I’m passionate about building scalable, intelligent, and high-performance software systems that drive real-world innovation.
