I am Vinesh, a cybersecurity practitioner in the AI Trust & Safety Engineering team at Google. I am an engineer/trouble maker on the cloud open source team and an ambassador of the Google For Startups program. I am the one developers yell at when stuff isn't working how they want; also the one the engineers yell at when the developers aren't using it right. I help folks stay safe, have fun & succeed in a digital world by harnessing software.
I strive for a digital world where anyone can experience freedom, wealth and success while staying safe and having fun…
Want to collaborate? Love to hear from you.
