Senior Machine Learning Research Engineer @ Huawei, Canada
About Me
I currently serve as a Senior Machine Learning Research Engineer at the Human Machine Interaction (HMI) Lab with Huawei, located in Toronto, Canada. Previously, I earned my Master of Applied Science (MASc) in Computer Engineering from the University of Toronto, Canada. During my time there, I worked under the guidance of Prof. Jonathan Rose and Prof. Moshe Eizenman from the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. My graduate thesis focused on developing an Eye Tracking System for a Virtual Reality (VR) Headset.
Prior Experience
In 2015, I received my undergraduate degree from Panjab University in Chandigarh, India, majoring in Electronics and Communication (ECE). Post-graduation, I accepted a position as a Software and Hardware Engineer at Jana Care in India. I contributed to the research and development team which was responsible for designing and implementing FDA-approved portable medical devices. In our portfolio of achievements, we designed a robotics system specifically to automate the HbA1c test. You can view details about this innovation here . I have also contributed to the development of the software stack from the ground up for General Prognostics Inc. , a remote disease management system.
Vision
My overarching objective is to engineer systems that significantly impact end users directly. This includes the development of eye-tracking systems at Huawei, which are poised to be integrated into desktops and laptops, enhancing the human-computer interaction experience. Beyond this, my recent focus has been to design intelligent agent systems that assist users in operating system-level applications including the photos/notes/painting application. These systems operate using in-house trained LLMs.
