I'm a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University, pursuing a Master's in Information Systems Management with a focus on AI and its related systems. My interests lie at the intersection of software engineering, data systems, and product strategy — building scalable infrastructure and impactful technology.
🔧 At Confluent, I lead product and engineering initiatives across Data Engineering and Business Technology, earning a Key Contributor Award for streamlining internal support processes.
🧠 I also bring experience in machine learning and data platforms from roles at Philips (LLM-based support tools & Airflow pipelines) and research at IISc, along with peer-reviewed ML publications in IEEE Xplore and Springer.
📌 Currently exploring opportunities in:
- AI and ML Engineering
- Product Management & Technical Strategy
- Software & Platform Engineering
📚 Recent Publication: Emotion Classification using Lightweight Language Models – IEEE Xplore
📄 Google Scholar: Tejas Goyal
🚀 Featured Projects: Kafka Architecture Simulator
Let’s build something impactful.
