Pritesh Gupta (CSE 331, Fall 2014)
Pritesh currently works at Illumio .
I'm Pritesh Gupta. I am currently working at a cyber security startup called Illumio in the Bay Area, where amongst a lot of other things, we visualize enterprise workloads and traffic and then enforce non-perimeter security. I took CSE 331 in the Fall of 2014.
Since we're a startup, we are always facing the problems of scaling and performance with most things we build. CSE 331 helps me in breaking down and formalizing those problems and for then taking a more methodological approach towards solving them (things we learn in proofs).
My advice to current 331 students would be to have fun with the homework, they're interesting and more importantly; teach us how to think logically. Additionally, many interview questions for companies here in the Bay Area are very similar to the problems asked in the homework.
