About

As a software engineer intern at Cisco, I develop and deploy high-performance real-time applications using Python, C++, AWS, and ML. I work with a team of engineers and product managers to deliver scalable and reliable solutions for complex problems. I also contribute to the OpenStreetMap project as a Google Summer of Code 2021 participant, where I improve its geocoding and routing services by implementing new algorithms and features. I am passionate about geospatial technologies and data, and I have applied my skills and knowledge in various projects, such as FastText CNN Model, Apache Airflow, GraphQL, Discord OAuth, and ZOOM Marketplace App. I am pursuing my degree in geological/geophysical engineering at IIT Roorkee, where I am actively involved in various student groups and activities, such as MDG Space, E-Cell, ASME, and Thomso. I have won several awards and honors, such as the InterIIT Silver Medal, for my academic and extracurricular achievements. I aspire to learn new technologies and skills, and to create impactful solutions for real-world problems. I value collaboration, innovation, and excellence, and I seek opportunities to grow as a software engineer and a leader.
