Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPuneet Mehrotra is a PhD researcher in computer science at the University of British Columbia with a decade of experience building storage and graph-processing systems that bridge transactional and analytical workloads. His work focuses on hybrid graph databases and the interplay between on-disk and in-memory representations to enable efficient updates, range queries, and iterative analytics without expensive ETL. Prior roles at NetApp honed his systems and automation skills—shipping storage host utilities, QA automation, and cross-platform tooling—while a master’s project demonstrated secure cross-device file access using ARM TrustZone. He combines deep systems engineering with practical production experience, experimenting with multiple graph representations to understand performance trade-offs across real-world workloads. An engineer who thinks from hardware to algorithms, he aims to make graph analytics as native and up-to-date as the underlying transactional data.
