About
Bharat Barkur
I am Bharat, an AI engineer. I've been fortunate to work in diverse places and teams, across several large companies and startups, building products and platforms across verticals that leverage AI, machine learning, NLP and software engineering — all rooted in fundamental computer-science principles. I obtained my Master's in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Florida, Gainesville.
I'm a huge tech buff and enjoy conversations and reading that span books, technology, cultures, languages, neuroscience, accessibility, finance, fitness, cooking, TV and film. Over the years I've written code in C, C++, Python, Java and Erlang.
Trivia
- I've travelled to 14 cities across 2 continents.
- I read, write and converse in English and Kannada.
- I'm also a cyborg — I wear an Advanced Bionics cochlear implant in my right ear.
