I have hacked around our campus ssh for automated file-sharing and I am actively looking for an engineering opportunity at an awesome start-up
I am a graduating student from IIT Delhi (India). As a student I shipped three products, as solutions to the problems I & my friends faced. I have also worked in a startup with core CS-problem.
I am passionate about joining a start-up with a team full of smart people solving an interesting problem where I can be a part of product ownership and contribute to my fullest.
Following is my experience and list of projects with links.
Some of projects are here on my github
- I hacked around our campus shared-ssh spaces to automate file-sharing via peer-server-peer, when the campus LAN was blocked.
- I created an instant-search for movies, when I realized more movie buffs like myself want quick ratings, trailers for movies as they type in names.
- I fixed event-publishing in our campus, with an automated event update system, that scans for events on FB pages, Google Calenders of our campus boards.
I worked in a high-tech Valley based start-up as a tech intern and then as tech consultant when I figured out start-ups are where my solutions can address a million-people's problems.
I pushed code in first week, solved problem of finding network reach (# of people you can connect to using your FB, LI, TW friends) until four degrees. Latter, I PoC-ed a new Architecture for improving search speed (based on six fields in a combined graph of FB, LI, TW. It's an awesome product for networking, you should check-out). We brainstormed and after great set of changes from team, started implementing it.
This speed can only be possible at start-up
I loved it and I decided to work for a start-up where the most awesome people solve hardest problems making life simpler and a little magical.
- I learned (still learning) all the CS stuff myself, though I have done couple of courses from campus.
- I have solid fundamentals in C, (thanks to Harvard's CS50), hence I can pick up any new language. In fact, I did develop apps & software in wide-range of languages.
- I can pick up new Language and framework very quickly and start building on top of them.
- In a final round of a national multi-stage competition by Works Applications, Japan, our team of three made a game-agent that won second prize.
If you are building an awesome product with smart people where none cares about titles but everyone has a part of product-ownership, talk to me. I would love to talk you about an opportunity at your start-up. Ping me on gmail sravfeyn@gmail.com or twitter or a leave comment below and I will get back to you
Insta movies is pretty cool :)
