Born in Kerala, India - I spent most of my childhood in various parts of the country. After completing my schooling in a number of Kendriya Vidyalayas, I got interested in computer science and eventually managed to enroll into an undergraduate program in Computer Science Engineering. Then I was passionate about anything Microsoft and played a lot with the then new C#. Eventually I joined work at Pramati technologies into their R&D team where I built some shiny things into their well-designed Java EE Application server. I presently work for the Engineering team at IBM Software Lab, where I develop the Search component on Cognos BI Server. Work involves Semantic Search, Search Scalability, Social Search etc. I am active at IBM tech vitality, where my hacks twice won the Hackday and once at the IBM Tech Connect. I am actively involved in incubation projects and cross-brand opportunities within IBM. I am also a committer (Code contributor) to the open source Apache Web Services Stack - Apache CXF. I was a member on the JCP expert group for JSR 303 - Bean Validation spec. ~ Food lover Related Commercials: |
