What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth in software development and cloud technologies.

I am a dedicated software engineer with a strong foundation in computer science and extensive experience in developing scalable systems. My journey began with a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering, followed by a Master of Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Throughout my career, I have been involved in various projects that emphasize my ability to lead teams and innovate solutions.

At QI Capital Markets, I led a team to create a risk management system that not only saved the company $80,000 per month but also significantly improved response times through a transition to a scalable architecture. My role as a Graduate Assistant at the University of Illinois allowed me to enhance my technical skills while managing over 2000 devices, ensuring seamless operations in both classroom and research environments. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and drive efficiency.
