Hi, I'm Kshitij 👋🏻

I'm a computer scientist, developer, mechanical engineer, minimalist, eternal student, mentor, leader and optimist.

I love to build things and solve problems. Challenging projects motivate me. My passion lies in answering engineering questions using numerical optimizaton and machine learning through self-guided research. I thrive under pressure and am dedicated to delivering exceptional results.

Over the past 14 years:

I have worked in Formula One, automotive and engineering software industries. My roles have covered both the computer science and engineering aspects of my academic background.

Now:

I currently work as a senior developer at Bosch, where I lead the development of simulation apps for testing embedded active safety systems in cars.
