Baffle is a leader in cloud native data privacy solution. As Chief Architect, I spearheaded the design and led the execution of the new platform that protects all semi-structured and unstructured data in LLM, object storage, data warehouse. Deployed inside cloud native SaaS providers and large enterprises.• Expanded the product portfolio to a broader data security platform by creating three new products, that protects data at field level, inside data lake, LLM, analytics engine and such. The multitenant containerized architecture created the base for multiple products with faster time to market at a cheaper price. without compromising quality. • Spearheading the development of a secure AI solution that protects users' private data within LLM and its ecosystem• Started with a small team, mentored, and grew it into an extremely capable and cohesive unit built on open communication, collaboration, and structured development.• Worked very closely with customers and cloud partners to ensure solutions meet the customer need under heavy load with no interruption. As a startup Chief Architect, I take pride in having a platform that can quickly meet customer needs

As founding CTO, I ideated and iterated on a unique data security product based on identity of data. I created the initial prototype, worked with potential customers and investors to define MVP and architecture.

Chief architect, Cloud and Network ProductsArchitect/Director; Office of CTOResponsible for the long-term strategy, product architecture and design of the application delivery and security platforms as part of the CTO organization. Worked with execs and engineering leaders to create long term roadmap and oversaw relevant architecture. Ran Architecture reviews, presented products and roadmaps to large customers• Led the architecture and strategy around intelligent dynamic policy-based traffic management system. The distributed platform supported elastic scaling to adjust with dynamic traffic growth and has integrated user security, firewall capability. This is in production across the globe in multiple large networks. Led and worked with globally distributed team.• Architected and led teams that developed application-level traffic optimization for video, file access protocol and HTTP traffic. The innovations developed resulted in 3 new patents.• Conceptualized and designed a distributed intelligent network service chaining system. Worked closely with large network providers to meet their requirements. Built an ecosystem with industry partners like Cisco, Intel, Ericsson and successfully demonstrated the solution at Mobile World Congress and Cisco Live.

Defined and delivered cisco's next generation integrated services blade that was used to deliver industry leading ADC and network fire-wall services. Architected the product and wrote code for major subsystems, I loved the idea of getting hands dirty that kept me honest. Partnered and collaborated with other Data center business units to bring the services to multiple products, worked with external HW and software vendors.Key technologies: Distributed control plane, HTTP, all protocols support, a high speed security classifier.

Acquired by cisco.Netiverse built the highest performing L7 service blade (Load balancer) of that era. As very early engineer I worked on almost all aspects of development, redundancy system, load balancing, control plane and testing.
