Common questions
- What are you working on right now?
- A stealth AI company — edge models, industrial telemetry and control systems for the physical world.
- Are you open to internships or full-time roles?
- I'm starting NYU's MS-CEI program in 2027 and open to conversations about internships and collaborations. Email me with what you're working on.
- What kind of roles are you after?
- Systems and backend work on IoT platforms, cloud infrastructure and AI-driven services — anywhere reliability under real-world conditions matters.
- Do you take on consulting or freelance projects?
- Yes, selectively — edge AI, IoT platforms and industrial data systems through my company. The more interesting the problem, the more likely I'll say yes.
- Can I invite you to speak?
- I've spoken at IIT Bombay, IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur and IEEE events. Email me with the event, audience and the topic you have in mind.
- Do you collaborate on research?
- Yes — especially document AI, edge AI and accessibility. If you have data, a problem or a draft, I'd like to hear about it.
- Do you still run Apex Infosys?
- No. I founded and ran it for four years and stepped back in 2026. It's on the site as history, not as something I'm selling.
- Where are you based?
- Mumbai, India (UTC+5:30), until I move to New York for NYU in 2027. Async suits me fine.
