About

I'm Saideekshith Vaddineni, a Computer Science and Engineering graduate from IIIT-Hyderabad, with a strong foundation in core computer science principles and a passion for building impactful technology. I currently work as a Data Scientist at Flipkart, where I apply machine learning and software engineering to solve real-world problems at scale. Previously, I interned at Google, gaining hands-on experience with large-scale software development and a deeper understanding of the software development lifecycle. My technical interests span Data Structures and Algorithms, Operating Systems, Computer Networks, Databases, Distributed Systems, and Machine Learning. I have worked with C/C++, Python, SQL, Go, JavaScript, Kubernetes, PyTorch, Hugging Face Transformers, and modern ML inference and deployment frameworks such as vLLM. At Flipkart, I have worked on machine learning and LLM-based applications, gaining practical experience with model serving, inference optimization, and deploying AI systems in production environments. I enjoy understanding systems from the ground up, from core algorithms and distributed systems to modern machine learning infrastructure and LLM serving. I'm particularly interested in the intersection of machine learning, systems, and real-world applications. What I might lack in experience, I make up for with my curiosity and determination to learn. Outside of technology, I'm an avid reader. My interests span a wide range of subjects, from sociology, history, and political science to philosophy and the captivating puzzles of a good detective thriller.

Work experience

Data Scientist at Flipkart, Jul 2026 - Present · 4 mos, Greater Bengaluru Area

Teaching Assistant at International Institute of Information Technology Hyderabad (IIITH), Jan 2026 - May 2026 · 5 mos, On-site, Responsible for holding tutorials, creating and evaluating assignments and quizzes, and clarifying doubts for students of the course Statistical Methods in AI (CS7.403) under Prof. CV Jawahar.

Undergraduate Researcher - RRC at International Institute of Information Technology Hyderabad (IIITH), Aug 2025 - May 2026 · 10 mos, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, As an Undergraduate Researcher at the Robotics Research Center under Prof. Harikumar Kandath, I worked on sound source localization for robotic systems using microphone arrays. I applied concepts from acoustics, wave propagation, geometry, and signal processing to estimate the position of sound sources. My work involved analyzing Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA), cross-correlation techniques, and noise filtering methods to improve localization accuracy. This research combined physics-based modeling with practical robotics and autonomous perception systems.

Software Engineer Intern at Google, May 2025 - Aug 2025 · 4 mos, Pune District, Maharashtra, India, Developed a proof-of-concept (POC) to automate the Major Version Upgrade process for AlloyDB databases. It aims to reduce human error and streamline the client's upgrade workflow.

Software Engineer Intern at Joly AI, Jan 2024 - May 2024 · 5 mos, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, Designed and Implemented a software that uses computer vision techniques to correct facial expressions. This software focuses on wedding photography photos and ensures that a person in a photo has the best facial expressions

Participant at The World Scholar's Cup, Aug 2019 - Sep 2019 · 2 mos, Pune District, Maharashtra, India, Competed in the World Scholar’s Cup, where my team earned a 3rd place finish 🏆 overall in the Pune round and was honored as the 2nd best debate team, leading us to qualify for the Global Round. This experience sharpened my critical thinking, deepened my teamwork abilities, and expanded my perspective on global issues.
