Software Engineer / Cisco / Bengaluru, India

Better networks
start with clarity.

I work at the intersection of network engineering, software, and automation—turning complex systems into solutions that are easier to understand, operate, and improve.

01 / A little about me

Engineering that connects
the big picture to the details.

My work spans network research, product engineering, and hands-on operations. I’m drawn to the challenge of making large-scale networks more observable and resilient—and to the thoughtful engineering it takes to make an idea work in the real world.

Curiosity, earned early.
From a CCNA course at Amrita to a career building with Cisco.
