1. Five-plus years experience in a high pressure startup environment. 2. Extensive experience (client & server side) developing live video applications using WebRTC. 3. Able to pick up new languages/platforms/technologies quickly. 4. Well-versed in the iterative software development methodology.

Senior Software Engineer @ Member of the Ask Toolbar Team (JavaScript). From October 2013 to Present (2 years 3 months) Software Engineer @ 1. GoCast.it Inc. is a Silicon Valley startup focused on web-based online collaboration for small groups. 2. “GoCast” is a web app that helps small groups meet and collaborate online through live video chat, public and private text chat, and collaborative widgets such as Whiteboard, Shared Editor, FileShare, Shared WikiBrowser, and a widget for running SlideShare presentations. 3. Developed “GoCastPlayer”, a WebRTC-based NPAPI browser plugin for Chrome, Firefox and Safari, which basically mimics the W3C PeerConnection JavaScript API. Modified the WebRTC C++ source to expose device enumeration/selection, video effects, audio volume level detection to JavaScript. 4. Spun off the GoCastPlayer source into its own OpenSource project on github.com for developers who wanted to use our enhanced version of the WebRTC API in their web apps. 5. Developed an Android Demo App to connect two android devices through video chat. Implemented a JNI wrapper for the OpenSource C++ WebRTC API and built a shared library which interfaced the API with the App. 6. Developed and implemented an XMPP-based signaling scheme for connecting two or more video chat peers using Strophe.js. 7. Developed an XMPP-based operational transform scheme for propagating widget changes (whiteboard pen strokes, add/delete files shared, presentation slide pagination, editor text mods and Wiki search topic changes). 8. Designed and developed the basic UI for collaborative widgets using HTML5, CSS and JavaScript. Also designed and developed the company website. 9. Involved in the design and development of an email-based user registration, activation and account management system for GoCast subscriptions. Developed server side node.js scripts for handling account creation, account activation, login/logout, listing owned rooms, listing rooms recently visited, change password, new room creation and room deletion. From October 2012 to October 2013 (1 year 1 month) Software Engineer @ 1. XVD Technology Holdings is a Silicon Valley company focused on providing proprietary video codec solutions and videoconferencing systems for businesses. As Software Engineer, I was responsible for researching new ways of video compression and distribution mechanisms. 2. Involved in the design and implementation of a cloud-based platform for building online communities whose members produce/consume one or more types of data and communicate with one another in a dynamic and elastic peer-to-peer network setting. 3. Designed and implemented an algorithm to detect scene changes in a video sequence using statistical pattern recognition technique known as Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Optimized the algorithm by using a more efficient approximation of PCA known as Truncated URV Decomposition. 4. Designed and implemented an algorithm to detect the Effective Resolution of a video sequence, i.e., the resolution calculated after taking into account the scale of the video frames, whether due to zooming of the camera lens, or due to artificial zoom introduced into the frames after they have been recorded. 5. Developed a C library to calculate different wavelet transforms of 2D integer arrays and optimized it to run on x86 Intel architectures using the Streaming SIMD Extension(SSE) instruction set. From September 2008 to September 2012 (4 years 1 month)
