Hi, I’m Vetri! With a background in cloud engineering and a drive to solve real-world challenges, I’m thrilled to be part of Z Collective as a Cloud Research Analyst. My journey in tech has spanned various roles—front-end, DevOps, and solution engineering—helping enterprises across North America architect their move to the cloud and build impactful solutions.

I recently earned my Master’s in Management Information Systems from the University of Arizona, where I also worked as a Teaching Assistant for a graduate-level Cloud Computing course. Mentoring students and exploring the latest in cloud technology under Professor Zara’s guidance has been both rewarding and enriching.

In summer 2024, I joined Z Collective, and it’s been incredible working with Zara and the team. We’ve been diving into MLOps research, experimenting with tools like MLflow, and learning constantly along the way. The support and mentorship from Zara have been nothing short of extraordinary, and I’m excited about what lies ahead.

Also, I’m a big Manchester United fan and an avid photographer—I love capturing clouds, the moon, and the beauty of nature through my Samsung and I love to cook Indian food. Looking forward to contributing to Z Collective’s mission and collaborating with this brilliant team on impactful projects!
