Work Experience
Principal Engineer
Arista Networks, Nashua, USA
I am a Principal Engineer at Arista Networks, in the CloudVision organization. I lead the design and development of critical features to address key customer challenges. CloudVision is a highly scalable distributed solution that provides real-time network visibility, automation, and zero-touch provisioning empowering the enterprises to streamline and optimize their data center operations.
One of my key contributions has been delivering multi-tenancy capability in CloudVision, which reduced the operational costs and also reduced the overall carbon footprint, supporting Green Cloud Computing initiatives and contributing to a healthier planet.
Engineering Lead
Amazon, Boston, USA
I led the infrastructure team in the People Experience Technology division, for developing a high-performance HR system powered by AWS services. It was a highly scalable system responsible for managing Amazon’s global workforce of 1.5+ million employees across 60+ countries. I owned the technical architecture of my team and played an influential role in ensuring security, privacy compliance, and operational readiness of our services.
Technical Lead
Parallel Wireless, Nashua, USA
I led and managed a team in the Cloud-Native Self Organizing Network (SON) project. I designed a patented distributed solution for Neighbor Management and PCI allocation algorithms that are crucial for neighbor and PCI allocation for new base stations added to the network.

Spanning Tree Learning in a Network Device
US20240015100A1 – Spanning tree learning in a network device – Google PatentsThis hitless upgrade innovation for large-scale data centers eliminated service disruptions in network devices, improved cloud infrastructure reliability for leading providers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud. It prevented the 30-second network reconvergence that previously reduced network availability for real traffic. The solution enhanced the ecosystem of highly scalable, distributed applications that rely on robust cloud infrastructure.
Distributed multi-HNG son
US11606703B2 – Distributed multi-HNG son – Google PatentsThis innovation revolutionized wireless network performance by enabling dynamic and flexible network self-organization in multi heterogeneous network environments. By decoupling eNodeBs from specific HNGs, the system enhanced network resilience, improved resource utilization, and simplified network management. This innovation significantly improved the user experience and network efficiency for a wide range of wireless applications.
