My area of expertise is distributed systems, and along with my teams, I have shipped
several such highly-scalable systems. These systems are not only efficient/scalable
but also provide good semantics to make it easy for an application programmer to use
them. These systems are designed with 24/7 smooth operations in mind so that service
disruptions are minimized. I have worked in the area of database systems, file
systems, wireless networks, notification systems, and infrastructure for supporting
sharded stateful servers. I have built several high-performing teams and I enjoy
mentoring and guiding engineers to achieve their career goals.
