I've worked at Google, Facebook. and Databricks building teams and products in the AI/ML, Search and Recommendation, leading/managing anywhere from 2 to 200 person teams. At the same time, I have a very active life outside work, so I'm a strong advocate for work-life harmony.
I love mentoring and guiding engineers, PMs, TPMs, data scientists, etc. My strength is in leadership coaching and mentoring, solving difficult organizational and inter-personal situations, interviewing for coding, ML design and, people skills, and bringing clarity to foundational theories of AL/ML and Statistics.
I've mentored 100+ and have encountered a sizable variety of situations and circumstances. At the same time, there's so much I don't know. What I do have to offer is an attentive pair of ears, empathy, and an environment for collective brainstorming.
Note: If you are looking for someone to teach you machine learning, give you regular tutoring and hands-on exercises, I am not the right person; I don't have time to prepare hands-on exercises and such.

Ritendra is a very genuine, candid, and honest person. He was able to quickly diagnose my problem and propose a path forward with my situation. He was very patient with me, tactical when needed, but also strategic at times, even when I did not request it. Like a wise master, he knows what is needed for a particular situation, giving the student the right direction, or sometimes asking the question that awakes the mind.

I didn’t feel I received enough support throughout my mentorship. Communication was often slow, and I felt like I had to manage most of the conversations myself. Overall, the experience didn’t meet my expectations.

Ritendra has been an incredible mentor for me through some interesting challenges in my career. He has some great insights and asked several questions that helped me reframe what I want to do with my career in general, not just with the role right in front of me. It's pretty awesome that someone of his tenure and experience makes time to help people like me. Would HIGHLY recommend - it's changed my career. Thanks Ritendra!
