Amit Khandelwal’s Summary

I have been in the software industry from 2001 onwards and I am very passionate about how technology can change our lives for the better. In the past I was very active with a philanthropic organization called AIDS (Association for India's Development).

As a hobby me and my friends brain storm ideas and see how we can start something of our own. I have worked in India for about two years and know the dynamics of software development team in India. If you are interested in something along those lines and looking for a way to start something in India may be can we figure something out. You can reach me at khandelwal dot amit at gmail.com

I completed my B.E in computer science from Pune University and then worked with Veritas Software for 2 years. I then moved to US to pursue my M.S in computer science from Florida State University, Tallahasse. During my thesis/project, I was involved in modifying the TCP/IP stack of an embedded system.

I am currently involved in designing/developing distributed real time applications on the Linux platform. In the past I have designed and developed a distributed server on Windows platform (using CORBA). The server was used for risk management by Equity Derivatives desk at Credit Suisse.
