Hi! I'm Kapil Krishnakumar,
a Programmer interested in Computer Vision and Distributed Systems.
My other passions are reading fantasy and sci-fi novels, travelling, and cooking/eating good food. I'm going to be joining Facebook in August as a Software Engineer and have proudly graduated in CS from the University of Texas at Austin
Experience
I will be starting at Facebook in August as a Full-Time Software Engineer.
TA in Computer Vision
I was a Teaching Assistant under Dr. Kristen Grauman for her CS376 class in the Spring of 2018. In this class, I spent time grading students assignments, grading assignments like Visual Search System and Image Segmentation, being available to answer questions on Piazza, and grading the tests.
Uber Software Engineering Intern
I was on the Storage SRE team at Uber working on building a traffic mirroring system for Schemaless, Uber’s distributed MySQL system that uses the RAFT protocol. We architected a design that showed no observable impact to production latency with 100% duplication of traffic.
