Engineering Experience

Architecting hyperscale data center network validation systems, AI infrastructure readiness gates, and distributed data pipelines.

Software Engineer

Google
January 2021 — Present Mountain View, California
  • Cloud AI & Data Center Network Infrastructure: Architected automated network readiness auditing, port verification, and link-qualification systems gating the turn-up of hyperscale GPU (NVLink) and TPU AI supercomputing fabrics, optical interconnects, and multi-terabit data center topologies—improving switch installation First Pass Yield (FPY) and cluster bring-up velocity.
  • Agentic AI & Spec-Driven Automation: Designed LLM-powered diagnostic expert agents and spec-driven engineering workflows to automate network anomaly triage, eliminate false-positive installation blocks, and enforce production rollout safety.
  • Geo Enterprise & Maps Platform: Developed large-scale data processing pipelines and a horizontally scalable privacy pseudonymization service to analyze and optimize response quality across global Google Maps APIs.
