Rishi is a Swiss Army Engineer. Put a hard problem in front of him, and you will not only get a solid solution, but your organization as a whole will be up-leveled because he puts a strong emphasis of sharing his knowledge outwards. One example was when Lattice was having problems with some particularly non-performant queries in older parts of the codebase. Nobody had touched them in years, and they were starting to create scaling bottlenecks. Not only did Rishi fix the specific offending queries (of which there were 10+ and were not simple), but also developed an internal framework for identifying non-performant queries and developed internal documentation on how to address non-performant queries as they come up in the future. And this is aside from the impressive amount of work and thought that Rishi puts into culture building and developing engineers around him. He has a holistic approach to developing engineering organizations, and does so by lifting up the people around him.
