ABOUT ME

Senior SWE@Google working to make GCP the most reliable Cloud

Getting the job is not even 10% of the picture. Interviews, like any exam, tests your will and appetite for putting efforts. But day-to-day jobs, specially the great ones, are about stretching problem solving capabilities. I hold a personal mission of developing minds to think beyond step-1, imagine beyond passing interview and getting hired, aiming beyond just surviving in the job but aim to thrive and climb within organisations in the right way. As a good coach, I look forward to listen to you patiently and equipping you with my learnings through experience of working in startup, Cisco Research and now at Google. Let's embark on the journey of figuring out how to create great values by solving problems using critical thinking and computing skills.

Current role: I am a senior SWE (L5) working in a team called RelInfra aiming to maximize customer reliability and minimizing systematic threats on reliability of services customer depends on. I explicitly lead a team which makes sure production changes are happening keeping customer workload in mind. We ingest Google-wide production change logs and ensure change practices are aligned with customer need. And when threats are detected, we consult with service owners to align the change management principles.

Container networking is messy and complicated. At the same time, virtual switch based networking setup was complicated to reason about. To bring the high-performance and easy-to-understand networking architecture in container space, worked on bringing VNF as sidecar with Envoy. This allows leveraging existing enterprise network policies customers already have and allowed hybrid and multi-cloud setups transparently.

Working in core enterprise research team, worked on OpenStack to develop high-performance networking stack. OpenStack networking had a terrible L2 network, filled with ARP broadcasts, inefficiency introduced by virtualisation, complexity of scaling policy enforcement. Introduced high performance networking stack using VPP to make packet processing faster and stable. Leveraged SDN to design a broadcast free ARP architecture using Locator-ID Separation Protocol's pull based architecture.
