About me
I am a Computer Engineer who enjoys challenges. Defying the ordinary, pushing the limits, and asking "why" and "why not" is what fuels my drive to achieve. Not knowing is never an issue, I can learn fast and thoroughly.
During my childhood I enjoyed building different structures from Lego, seeing simple blocks put together to create something marvellous has its appeal. And although I wasn't playing with Lego during my high-school connecting simple statements to create the wonders of computer programs just felt right home. Give me a complex challenge, and I'll gnaw at it until something elegant surfaces.
What I like doing
-
Computer Vision
Be it analysis of satellite imagery, ball detection from a webcam, or digital image manipulation and analysis; the idea that computers can make sense of images just makes me happy.
-
Data Science & ML Engineering
Gathering, filtering, and pre-processing data, which is taught to a neural network which simulates a human brain learning, and seeing it perform well makes me wonder how soon will the machines overtake us?
-
Low-level code
We all use abstractions daily, but we rarely think about how all the libraries, smart gadgets, and computer components work. That's the pride of the unknown hero, making people's lives run without them even noticing.
-
Cryptography & InfoSec
With our data migrating slowly to the digital world as all institutions move towards digitisation, the amount of critical and personal data online increases. Someone has to make sure that they stay safe and secure, right?
Environments Where I Thrive
-
Innovative
Where research flows into development. Where ideas don't get stale. Where thinking outside the box is a virtue.
-
Scientific
Where the state-of-the-art is pursued. Where ideas survive based on natural selection. Where the quality is measured precisely.
-
Social
Where the surroundings stimulate the personal growth. Where there are no barriers between people. Where not knowing and asking is never a sin.
