Summary
Srinidhi Nandakumar is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer with 11 years of experience building ML-driven products and cloud services, currently developing connectivity and recommendation systems at Amazon Lab126 in Los Angeles. He combines algorithm design, backend scripting, and web development to take ideas from prototype to production, with past work spanning VMware Cloud Foundation hybrid cloud services and ML infra for Fire TV recommendations, ranking, and search. An MS in Computer Science from USC, he has a strong track record of applied research and product-focused internships—from NASA JPL data science pipelines to chatbots and matching systems for civic and academic projects. Srinidhi favors data-driven, logical decision-making and enjoys exploring multiple solutions before committing, which has repeatedly led to practical optimizations (e.g., energy-saving recommenders and TA assignment algorithms). He brings a rare blend of cloud engineering and ML ops experience, comfortable moving between low-level infrastructure and high-level model design.
