Designed the Zscaler Business Insights platform that enables customers to gain insights into application access patterns and identify optimizations.

Overall architecture, design and development of components for bringing Molecula FeatureBase as a multi-tenant software as a service offering.

- Designed and developed data ingestion framework and connectors, supporting over 100 customer data center integrations.- Designed and developed a full-stack Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) workload and configuration insights. Also designed a policy framework to enforce policies, identify drifts and ensure compliance.

- Designed and developed StyleBooks, a domain-specific declarative language (Infrastructure as Code) for configuration management of Citrix NetScalers. I wrote a compiler that translates a StyleBook definition into a Python package. - Designed and developed a distributed fault-tolerant and consistent key-value store. Designed and implemented a reliable replication feature for the key-value pairs with eventual consistency guarantees.

Designed and developed control plane features of ASR9K (a high-performance edge router) for traffic engineering, fast re-route technologies, and access control lists.

Teaching Operating Systems to Senior level students at Michigan State University.Conducting help sessions to assist in course projects that involves OS system calls, synchronization primitives, and POSIX thread library.

Research and prototype development for sensor networks. Developed a tool for programming sensor networks that hides low-level details of sensor networks (e.g., resource limitations, limited communication capability, message collision, etc) and programming platforms (e.g., buffer management, stack management, flow control).Developed an energy-efficient service for reprogramming the sensors deployed in the field over the wireless radio channel. Demonstrated prototype implementations to DARPA including the following.1. ProSe: A programming tool for sensor networks.2. Infuse: A network reprogramming service for sensor networks.3. SS-TDMA: A TDMA based MAC layer for sensor networks.4. LITeS and ExScal: Large scale sensor network deployments (around 1000 sensors over an area of 1 KM x 0.3 KM) to detect, classify, and track intruders in the field (typically in border patrolling scenarios).

Taught Freshman and Sophomore level students technical problem solving using computer tools (such as Matlab and Excel). Conducted Laboratory sessions to provide hands-on experience in learning such tools.
