Hi, I’m Shekhar.
I’m a builder, a problem-solver, and someone who gets genuinely excited about making intelligent machines work smarter—not harder.
My journey into tech didn’t start in a corporate office—it started in training rooms across India, where I stood in front of eager students and realized something profound: the best way to truly master something is to teach it. Those early years, training over a thousand students and corporate professionals, taught me that breaking down complexity and making the intimidating feel achievable is a superpower. That’s still how I approach every problem.
Fast forward to today: I’m living in Lisbon, working on technology that would have blown my younger self’s mind. But here’s what hasn’t changed: I still love that moment when something clicks: whether it’s an AI model finally meeting performance targets, a team member’s face lighting up when they crack a tough problem, or a system humming along perfectly after weeks of debugging.
What I Actually Do
Life beyond code?
I’m obsessed with learning and staying curious about the world—and yes, that extends far beyond programming.
Travel & Photography: I love to explore — whether it’s hiking through nature trails, getting lost in the vibrant chaos of metro cities, or finding that perfect viewpoint for a photograph. Photography has become more than a hobby; it’s how I process the world, capturing moments of beauty in both wilderness and urban landscapes.
Europe has become my playground for this—one city at a time, one photograph at a time, constantly asking “what if?” about the intersection of AI, edge computing, and industrial automation as I watch these technologies reshape the cities I explore.
Languages: Currently, I’m on a linguistic adventure—stumbling through German and Portuguese at A1 level (ordering coffee without pointing is now a minor victory 😄). Each new city I explore becomes both a photography opportunity and a chance to practice mangling another language.
Continuous Growth: In early 2023, I made a deliberate choice to put myself in an unfamiliar environment. New country, new languages, new culture. It’s been humbling, challenging, and absolutely worth it. Comfort is where growth goes to die. I’d rather be challenged, stretched, and occasionally out of my depth than coasting on what I already know.
Why Lisbon?
The intersection of European tech culture, access to amazing natural landscapes, and the opportunity to challenge myself in a completely new environment made sense. Lisbon’s rapid growth in tech, combined with its gateway position to industrial automation innovation, created the perfect place to combine my passion for problem-solving with continuous learning.
Plus—the light is incredible for photography 📸
Let’s Work Together
Whether you’re interested in:
– **Discussing embedded systems challenges** – debugging, optimization, architecture
– **Exploring edge AI opportunities** – deploying smart on constrained devices
– **Collaboration or mentoring** – on technical challenges or career growth
– **Photography or travel stories** – completely unrelated but always fun
Feel free to reach out. I’m always excited about meaningful technical challenges and connecting with people doing interesting work.
