About Me
Software Engineer. Independent Researcher. Passionate Educator.
Who am I?
I am Sakthi Kumaran Shanmuganathan, a Software Engineer by profession with about 10 years of experience and a researcher by passion.
During my days at UT Arlington, I had the opportunity to work with great professors like Dr. Ramez Elmasri and Dr. Manfred Huber.
I am currently not associated with any organisation and work as an Independent researcher.
What I do here?
Intent of this space:
Given the phase of software engineering towards AI-reliance that led to new field of prompt engineering, there is misunderstanding of usage of AI - technology should augement humans rather suppress thinking and learning.
Core Philosophy:
Languages are communication tools and DSA defines the efficiency for using the tool. The core of software evolution was hands-on research.
We were able to build Chat-GPT, Claude or an AI via manual coding, thinking with human emotions, solving on-line real-time issues with temperament.
In this website, I will:
- Showcase products built following software engineering skills and good research
- Share knowledge based on research via experiments covering DSA, Languages, and System Architecture/Design at an in-depth level
Any content I post here is based on personal learnings and knowledge and does not associate with any of the organisations I worked or would work for.
