More than a decade of experience in creating innovative products and co-founding startups within the computer vision space, I have a strong background in developing object tracking in 2D and 3D, facial features interpretation, and eye gaze tracking. My current project involves eye-tracking technology for fighter pilots, designed for use in both simulator cockpits and helmet displays. Previous projects include systems to optically grade student assessments via Chromebooks and WSAM in real-time, 3D multi-camera tracking of body poses, visual interpretation of emotional affect in both humans and animals, and technology for measuring pupil responses. I also have a background in medical computer vision applications, including automated computation of ejection fractions from cardiac MR and echocardiogram data, as well as interpretation of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images.

Remote: Yes

12+ years of experience building on the web from the days of backbonejs to building performant webapps using Svelte, React and working on a diverse set of platforms spanning far and wide (Native applications using WinUI, Kotlin on Android, performant servers/systems in Go/C++).

Proficient in both front-end and back-end technologies, I have a proven track record of delivering high-performance solutions that enhance user experience and drive business success. I pride myself in adapting to an organization's needs and goals quickly in order to deliver solutions that minimize delays. I shine best in scenarios where organizations require a "fixer" or someone to streamline a team, lay down the best standards in architecture and build a solid foundation for uninterrupted future success due to tech debt, a recurring and pervasive problem in enterprises.

I've worked with a multitude of early level startups to build solid foundations and fixing issues that come from rapid growth.

My philosophy is building products that are minimal, maintainable yet highly performant and accessible to every strata of user.

Please drop a message if interested, would love to hear from you!

A few days ago I read about Myers' distance algorithm and have been trying to understand and write code for a few days.

I enjoyed it again! Isn't boredom not due to programming but due to the environment surrounding me? Now I am looking for opportunities in other continents.

Cycling friendly places would be great.
