Shruti Mandaokar — Operations Associate
Hi, I’m Shruti Mandaokar - and I live for the “Aha!” moments where creativity meets code. I’m driven by curiosity and the excitement of turning ideas into real, working systems. Whether it’s building with machine learning, designing backend systems, or experimenting with new tools, I enjoy learning fast and translating that learning into impactful solutions. My goal is simple: to build products that meaningfully combine my skills, creativity, and curiosity to create value for users. I come from a multidisciplinary background - Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering (Bachelor’s), Computer Science (Master’s), and Business Management — which shapes how I approach problems: analytically, creatively, and with a product mindset. My experience spans across: - Startups (Datastrato.ai) - Corporate (Vodafone Intelligent Solutions) - Research (Lab of Data Science, Purdue University) - Along with PFW campus dining - where I learned the value of adaptability and teamwork in fast-paced era. I’ve also contributed to research in multimodal AI, with work on sensor fusion for gas leakage detection gaining 215+ citations — an experience that strengthened my interest in building systems at the intersection of hardware, software, and intelligence. Beyond work, I’m deeply creative at heart. I enjoy music (with years of training in Indian classical), art, and design - and I love bringing that creativity into everything I build. You’ll often find me exploring new ideas, working on side projects, or simply energizing the people around me. I value both focused work and intentional rest, and I believe consistency builds everything - whether it’s in learning, building, or even personal challenges like long-distance running. I’m currently seeking opportunities starting May 2026 (F1 STEM OPT) in: - Machine Learning + Sensor Fusion - Software Engineering - Technical Writing - Product-focused roles in innovative teams If you’re building something exciting or believe in thoughtful, curious builders — I’d love to connect. 📬 mands01@purdue.edu | shrutimandaokar.connect@gmail.com 💻 github.com/Shruti2301
