I am currently employed as a Senior Software Engineer at zeotap. I have around 6 years of experience in developing scalable and distributed applications. At Zeotap I handle critical products which include ZeoMapper, ZeoData and contributed significantly in DAB, which is a distributed micro-service.
Prior to Zeotap, I worked in the EUC silo in VMWare and he delivered in View for Horizon and View for Citrix, which collects health statistics of View and Citrix XenApp clusters.
Before that, I worked at Microsoft in the Bing Team and won innovation award for Query Explorer, which was one stop portal containing the search query information, and I contributed significantly by not only developing and deploying the necessary infrastructure but also devising a model which named the entities related to the search query. Later, I designed Athena, a pipeline for pushing high precision data to Bing Search Charm, which was integrated to Windows8.1 and on-boarded 8 partners for the pipeline.
Prior to this, I worked at Morgan Stanley as Technical Analyst under the VP of Technology, Prime Brokerage. I took great initiatives in migrating the existing LiveWire service from java 1.2 to java 1.5, redesigned the client relationship module, and moved from SQL-based queries to Hibernate, which reduced the transaction time from 20 minutes to 30 seconds. I also optimized PBT(Profit Before Tax), using java multi-threading he reduced the processing time from1 hour to 10 minutes.
I am enthusiastic in understanding businesses and invests in the stocks in Indian Markets in his personal capacity.

It allows you to create something out of nothing, and like civil engineering, if you follow a good design you can build solid and robust application which can scale, and seeing the app grow and mature over the time gives me pleasure :)
