India

Message

At Amazon, I develop AI-powered features for the Alexa mobile application and lead technical design across mobile and backend systems. I led a multi-year re-architecture of the Alexa Communications codebase, splitting shared functionality into independently owned packages to reduce inter-team dependencies and improve code reuse.

I also identified a logging cost driver in a production service and reduced overall AWS cost by 9.3% with a log-format change. Before Amazon, I developed the native macOS client for Zoho Mail and created shared UI components and frameworks used across Zoho’s macOS and iOS applications.
