Experience

1. Principal Program Manager Pm Architect

   Microsoft

   Aug 2011 — Present

   I currently work in Developer Division as a PM Architect. My general responsibilities involve researching our tooling of machine learning and AI software platforms. I was involved with the company\'s efforts to rationalize and strengthen the Azure client SDKs for most of 2016, helping define the SDK strategy around programming languages and platforms. Late 2014 - early 2016, I worked in the Cross-Platform and Open Tools group within Developer Division. Our primary focus is on developing tools for and engaging with developers who use languages and platforms that are not traditionally part of the Microsoft space. Before this position, I was involved in the C++ team, where I worked on the Casablanca C++ REST SDK; I attended ISO C++ standards committee meetings for a few years, mostly contributing to the dialog around concurrency and parallelism support.
