About
I build infrastructure that makes AI useful for billions. At Microsoft Azure, I lead products across inference capacity management, agentic search, and computer-use agents. The systems behind the next wave of AI experiences for developers, enterprises, and the world. My work spans LLM platforms, retrieval and orchestration, multi-agent systems, developer platforms, enterprise AI, Microsoft 365, Teams, Loop, Copilot, and now Azure. The cloud layer behind it all. I am an inventor with 1 published patent, US11714544B2, and 2 confidential patent filings in AI systems. My curiosity for hard problems started early. For my B.Tech. thesis, I designed a human habitat on the Moon and won a worldwide NASA competition. I started my career in a thermal power plant, where I learned a simple lesson: real impact comes from building foundational systems that scale. AI. Energy. Space. Different domains. Same obsession.
