resulted in increased confidence at high quality releases on a weekly basis.

Technical Lead Manager

o Built software teams from scratch that delivered multiple 0->1 products (hack to deployment) for data center automation: 
       - OpenBMC: Provides efficient remote system monitoring, control, and telemetry capabilities for compute/storage/network equipment in Data Center; Stack: Yocto, U-Boot, Linux, and apps (daemons, utils, RESTFul API)
       - OpenBIC: Provides abstraction logic to BMC with discovery process for plug-n-play for single-socket blades with compute/storage/accelerators; Stack: TI-RTOS and/or Zephyr, apps(daemons, IPMI/IPMB, MCTP)
       - Open System Firmware (OSF): Provides open source alternative to UEFI/BIOS allowing quick bringup, faster boot, better security, and inspectability/debug-ability; Stack: Coreboot, LinuxBoot, u-root 
       - Robotics: Safe and Efficient Data Center automation capabilities for various use cases like autonomous rack movement, better asset tracking, remote video conference etc. Stack: Linux, Robotics Operating System (ROS), Computer Vision etc.
o Successfully designed, developed, and deployed world's first open source based manageability solution (aka OpenBMC) for multiple generations of server/storage/network platforms at Meta
o Evangelized OpenBMC stack leading to the formation of OpenBMC project under Linux Foundation resulting in a healthy eco-system adopted by 75+ companies and 500+ of developers. 
o Created Offshore Development Center (ODC) for software development which helped Meta accelerate open source community adoption/contribution
o Prepared and presented Open Source Software products built by our team at various industry conferences over years that include Open Compute Project (OCP), Open Source Firmware Conference (OSFC), Data Center World etc.
o Mentored various software engineers, Tech Leads, Tech Lead Managers, and Managers across organization.
