First and foremost, Apurva is a delight to work with. He is passionate and eager to help out broadly in the team, bringing a bright smile and enthusiasm to every call and conversation. In our (unfortunately) short tenure together at Twitter, I've seen Apurva shine as a mentor, set up monitoring/alerting for core services, work with Product to prototype and test hypotheses, and help mature the team's processes to be more efficient and effective.

Apurva was part of the ML Serving team that focuses on ML inference workloads. Apurva has been a key team member that brought a lot of team cohesion and energy through scheduling social meetings etc. This has been important to that team as the team was distributed across multiple locations.

Coming straight from college, he was able to quickly ramp up in the domain and the technology being used with minimal guidance. The innovative ideas Apurva implemented proved to be very beneficial and helped the team meet business expectations of delivering in a short duration of time and with zero defects. Along with focusing on his assigned project work, he proactively volunteered for stretch assignments. Overall, Apurva has consistently performed his duties with competence and gone the extra mile to ensure a solid product was shipped. He gelled very well with the team and was respected by his team members for his passion and innovative ideas.

Apurva showed tremendous enthusiasm for technology and played a crucial role in some of the automation delivery for my team. He is a self starter and very committed team player. I have never known a situation when either I or team leads had to follow up with him. He would go the extra mile to scale up on new technology and coding skills. Even though he was still a student while doing internship, at workplace he displayed high levels of maturity and great sense of responsibility. I was happy he was in my team.
