Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShaunak Galvankar is a researcher-turned-engineer in the Bay Area pursuing a PhD in Computer Science after an MS at Santa Clara University, with eight years of hands-on experience spanning web development, operating systems, and cloud infrastructure. He currently builds programmable network and SmartNIC offloading solutions as a Research Assistant while teaching web programming and operating systems as a TA, blending practical systems work with pedagogy. His non-linear path—from an Electronics B.E. to a Deloitte internship, a finance detour studying for the CFA, and back into computing—gives him a rare cross-domain perspective on systems design and real-world requirements. Comfortable both writing production web apps for student organizations and diving deep into data-center infrastructure, he focuses on resilient, high-performance platforms for ML, security, and storage. Pragmatic and curious, Shaunak’s journey shows a pattern of exploration that consistently converges on infrastructure research and innovation.
