Interests

My primary interests are in the theory, practice and art of wireless systems for communications, sensing and prediction, leveraging both computational (including, but not limited to AI) and mathematical tools. I am interested in all layers of the systems I work on.

I am also interested in building trustworthy distributed systems.

I relish the opportunity to work with creative (but not necessarily visionary or disruptive) problem solvers across disciplines.

Brief Bio

I am currently building trustworthy distributed systems for various emerging verticals.

Previously, I was a Member of Technical Staff within Bell Labs. Prior to that, I served as the Wireless Systems Architect and a Software Lead at ZaiNar, before which I served as a Senior Engineer at Cohere Technologies. I spent six wonderful years in the MS/PhD (Electrical Engineering) program at Stanford University with Andrea Goldsmith as my primary advisor. My PhD thesis is on noncoherent energy-detection-based communications for massive MIMO systems. During my PhD, I was involved with ImpriMed, which is now offering assays for personalizing pet cancer treatment.

My undergraduate studies were in IIT Kanpur where I majored in Electrical Engineering. My BTech project advisor was Ajit Chaturvedi. Before that, I went to South Point High School in my hometown of Kolkata, India.
