Big Data Architect

I am an avid reader, who likes keeping himself updated about the world at large – be it politics, current affairs, environment, literature or music. I have a healthy amount of intellectual curiosity and I like keeping myself challenged by dabbling in multiple diverse disciplines.

I currently work at Purplecube, a data analytics and product company that is solving problems at scale for some of the largest corporations in the world.

Specialties: Over the past 19+ years of industry experience I have worn multiple hats.

I was instrumental in setting up the machine learning and data sciences specialty at Infosys and I scaled it up to a team of 30+ engineers.

I was the program manager for a massive global, core banking upgradation program for one of the largest banks of the world.

I have worked in design and development of enterprise systems, program management, pre-sales and R&D. I have been involved in proposals related to large technology upgrade, migration and application development programs for several leading investment & retail banks and insurance sector giants, and I have attended vendors conferences for major European financial institutions.

My interests and pastimes include 19th century Russian and English literature, meditation in the Advaita Vedanta and Zen traditions, Hindustani Classical music, cognitive psychology, Eastern religions, mysticism and travelling.
