About • Works • Resume • Research
I currently head a Generative AI R&D team for Amazon AWS. Previously, I led AI for Speaker Understanding and Personalization at Amazon Alexa.
Prior to Amazon, I was part of the Machine Intelligence Neural Design (MIND) team at Apple, where I developed on-device multimodal AI models for a wide range of applications including Natural Language Processing, Speech Recognition, and Computer Vision. I was one of the early architects of Apple's M1 chip, developing ML models for estimating performance of future Macs years in advance. Before Apple, I was at Qualcomm and Nvidia working on neural accelerators and GPUs. I am a receipient of the EB-1 "Einstein Visa" (conferred by the US Government for extraordinary acclaim in a specialized field).
I pursued my graduate studies in Artificial Intelligence from Stanford University, specializing in Multimodal AI. I received my Masters in Computer Engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2014 with an outstanding graduate student award. I am a distinguished alumnus of the University of Mumbai. As a Research Fellow at universities around the US and India, I advise research projects and publish in leading AI venues. I maintain an AI portfolio at www.aman.ai. Outside of work, I like hiking, gardening, and staying fit.
