About

Hi, I'm Ruchitha! I'm a graduate from Cornell University's College of Engineering, where I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science and a minor in Data Science. I currently work at MongoDB on the Replicated Storage Services Team, and love learning and working on all things distributed systems, operating systems, and the challenges around low-level computing. I’m always looking to build new connections and opportunities, so please feel free to reach out to me at [email protected]
