Hi! I am Jyotiska. I currently work as an Engineering Manager at HackerRank and live in Bangalore.
Previous to this, I was the Chief Technology Officer at Uvi Health, where I headed engineering and product. We created India’s #1 PCOS care app that scaled to 50,000+ downloads and over 30,000+ registered users within the first year of launch. The platform and the app was acquired by the Mother & Child Care vertical of a large multinational corporation.
Before Uvi Health, I co-founded and operated KrishiHub for 5 years between 2017 and 2021, building a large scale nation-wide Agri supply chain system and served as the Chief Technology Officer.
In 2016, I led Data Engineering efforts at GSN Games at the Bangalore studio. Before GSN, I started my career with DataWeave as part of their early team back in 2013 and spent time building products.
I completed my Masters from IIIT Bangalore with Databases and Information Systems & Machine Learning specialization. My Masters thesis was a collaboration between University of Naples and Infosys Labs, where I interned during my final semester.
Whenever I find time, I work on few side projects of my own and contribute to open source. My personal projects are on my GitHub profile. The best way to contact me is by email.
During grad school, I worked on a bunch of research projects in the areas of Distributed Computing, Semantic Systems and Machine Learning. My complete research work can be found on my Google Scholar and ResearchGate page.
