• AWS Certified Professional Architect with advanced cloud computing skills to build highly fault tolerant, cost effective and scalable solutions.
• Working as a Lead Cloud Engineer at Appian Corporation  and Leading the Web Layer & Connectivity Squad at  Appian Cloud. Working with cutting edge technology to automate challenging problems in cloud operations including but not limited to predictive (using Machine Learning) and reactive auto-scaling of web layer, building elastic web layer, monitoring infrastructure health and performance, metrics analysis using data analytics, application deployment, infrastructure and cloud operation automation, etc.
• In my spare time, I actively research on and study about Machine Learning and apply it actively at work.
• Earned UPenn's entrepreneurship/intrapreneurship certification via Coursera to improve my soft skill set in management and understanding long term enterprise success by minimizing risk in this competitive technology industry by taking courses with .
• I also work on projects (applications to solve daily problems) by developing software/applications which are scalable, maintainable, and highly available. One such example is ARAMAIS, which is a suite to automate a lot of operations which restaurants perform and gathers metrics to improve performance of their operations significantly. This suite is currently available on mobile but will soon be available on web as well with both types of platforms backed by cloud deployment. If you are interested to know more about this and want me to give you a demo, send me your information by filling this form (this will require completing an NDA if I find your request interesting).

Quotes of the Month

​“My brain is only a receiver, in the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.”
“Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more” - By Nikola Tesla

Since, I missed my quotes for June and July due to extensive traveling, I am catching up on posting them. These ones were said by one of my most favorite scientists and an exceptional man indeed, Nikola Tesla. I really wish mankind gave him the honor and respect he deserved during his last days for powering our modern society.

These two quotes reflect upon my values of "Best Ideas Win and Meritocracy" and "Mistakes/Failures". While we should always be willing to learn and obtain knowledge,  we should admit our failures and take instantaneous corrective actions. The day we are not honest with ourselves and defy our virtues, is when we lose track of who we are.

Every month I will try to publish a quote which reflects a value I highly prioritize. These will be usually from an individual who has improved our thinking or way of living.
