Professional Experience :

EBay Inc June 2008 – Aug 2010

Software engineer - Involved in building and enhancing the verification

system for eBay.

Responsible for building a new type of 3rd party assertion-based SOA

service for identity check verification based on the Name, Address, and

Phone number of a user which forms the entire basis for the next

generation eBay verification system.

Worked on building a new Knowledge-based authentication (KBA) Service,

that will be used for Front Door Security to target bad users while

balancing the eBay good user friction.

Plugged the leak of the existing eBay Seller Registration by

introducing the user machine identity based verification into the

existing eBay seller registrations without impacting the current

functionality.

Helped allay the customer repugnant ratio by researching and unfurling

the discrepancies that exist in the current platform and provided

reconciliation solutions as a measure of self heel for the system

issues.

Collaborated in capturing the user activity within the system to

implement a Neural Network based system which calculates a user

verification score, widely consumed across the eBay systems for user

evaluation.

Actively engaged in the idea, design and development of several

internal assistance tools.

Helped in building an internal verification monitoring graph tool that

is run as a batch every hour plotting the number of users registering

at eBay and sends a caution alarm when the count decreases or increases

beyond the threshold which facilitated the eBay management in observing

and tracking the overall system.

Skilled in analysis and code optimizations involving system research.

Experienced in working with agile methodology and SOA services.

Worked on building a Experimental Learning (ExL) tools to perform tests

on the verification platform, which when enabled, help select the

verification process for a small percent of the user population, based

on the experimenting parameters and depending on the routing criteria

provided through the experiments created in the Experimentation

Platform.

Involved in drafting the entire production roll out plan for the

critical Name-Address-Phone verification SOA service project.

Analyzed, reported and rectified a very long existing and revenue

impacting bug within the system in which the number of users

registering in eBay was calculated inaccurately.

Provided leadership and held training sessions to the team of engineers

on the verification platform and bolstered them with the project

ventures.

Awards & Recognitions:

Won the eBay Spot Award for the design, analysis and expedited delivery

of a critical user verification project, ‘Known good authentication’

aimed at blocking the fraudsters. This project resulted in an overall

10% reduction of fraudsters.

Received the 2010 Engineering Excellence Award, one of the prestigious

accolades of eBay for building the new generation verification system.
