About

Hi, I’m Achal! This is my extremley-negected personal website + blog.

I’m currently a Staff Machine Learning Engineer at Reddit.

I spent 5 years as an Engineer at Tecton, a startup building a data platform for ML.

Before this, I was an Engineer at Uber - I was the tech lead for the Deep Learning Inferencing project within Michelangelo, the Machine Learning Platform team. I also helped build Hailstorm, a load generation platform.

At Amazon Fulfillment Technologies in Seattle, I wrote software for forecasting + planning for Fulfillment Centers.

I’m interested in Systems, ML, and Scalability professionally, and a variety of things in general.

You can find me on LinkedIn, and github but, I’m most reliably reachable via email.

I’m originally from Ahmedabad, India, where my parents, both of whom are doctors, currently reside.

My Resume can be found here.

In 2025 I moved over my blog to ghost.io at https://blog.achals.com. Some old stuff I wrote is still up at /archive.
