- Abhi
Did my schooling from City Montessorie School (CMS), Mahanagar, Lucknow.
Though there are many achievements of CMS-Lucknow, I would like to highlight a few of them here.
After my schooling, I decided to pursue engineering in the field of Electronics and Communication at the Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati.
I graduated from IIT Guwahati in 2007.
I am currently working at Yahoo, Bangalore (June '08 - Present).
My journey started as a backend engineer in Yahoo India Movies Team.
There I primary focused on building scalable web services and backend caching implementation.
Next I moved to the micro-site building team where I was working on India Elections '09 site.
And, Currently I am working as a backend engineer in Yahoo Cricket Team.
Oracle was my first employer (June '07 - May '08).
There I was a part of Supply Chain Management (SCM) Team, OBIEE Group.
Specifically I worked on building Common dimensions and SCM Modules for the OBIEE Apps 7.9.4 and 7.9.5 release.
I did my 3rd year internship at EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland (May '06 - July '06).
There I was a part of the ITS Team, building Music Information Retrieval (MIR) systems for the Axmedis Project.
where I was able to find my work interest.
My first real introduction to music was way back in December '02, thanks to Amit Chandra and Navneet Singh (best buddies).
Back then Navneet was looking to form a band and after some effort finally the band was named as "Aaveg" which went on to win
various college gigs and festivals.
I never looked back after my initial introduction to music. Luckily I went to IIT Guwahati for my graduation, which already had a
good culture for rock music. There I formed a band called "Ichor". Ichor performed all throughout the 4 years in various
cultural night and competitions. Remarkable achievement include 2nd runners up at Rock-o-Phonix.
Ichor finally came out with 4 original compositions.
