“I worked with Vishal for about six years at the New York Times. Our group provides analytic and technical support to marketing and circulation. Working with him has been a treat, both personally and technically. I hope we have the opportunity to work together again in the future. My first real interaction was on a demonstration project to build a multi-armed bandit for optimizing online user experience. This system was a real-time system, aggregating online behavioral data at the user level, and then processing the recommendations using naive Bayesian optimization. Vishal had no prior experience with the statistics or mathematics behind the methodology. Shortly after he started coding the solution, we sat together to review the code. Within minutes, it was obvious not only that he got the problem but that he is an excellent software engineer. I no longer felt the need to review his code. The most recent project we worked on is a project for defining the digital subscriber. On this project, Vishal learned Scala/SPARK in the Google environment and implemented a framework for processing real-time events -- all in a matter of months. He then passed the framework software and the system off to a team of developers, who are productively using it. It continues to run successfully, proving the value of his chosen technologies. ”
