Brief Bio: My background broadly spans program analysis, compilers, and ML. In recent years, I have been working at the intersection of Machine Learning (ML), compilers, and tools that improve productivity of programmers. I am currently a Tech Lead at Google working on GenAI-based tools that aid software development (Code Generation, Information Seeking, SWE Agents). I show-cased the work at an Internal Event in May 2024 to all of Google.

Before that I was an engineer at Facebook, and a research staff member in the Systems Analysis and Verification (SAV) group at NEC Laboratories America, Inc., Princeton, NJ. I got my Ph.D in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My CV has more details on my current and past work.

I went to the College of Engineering, Guindy for my undergraduate degree. I am from Pollachi, a small and lively town in Tamil Nadu, India. Of late, I have taken a liking to photography.
