Bio
John B. Dowling
Gaurav is an exceptionally intelligent individual who is knowledgable in multiple disciplines, including genomics, microbiology, software development, statistics, data science and applied sciences... and this list is not complete. More importantly, Gaurav has a strong desire to understand problems and then apply these skill sets tenaciously to solve them. Add to this his leadership and him being a genuinely nice guy and you can understand why I think people should be very happy to be working with him. A++

Gaurav is among the most reliable and thoughtful managers I have worked with in my career. I reported to Gaurav when I first joined the Seven Bridges program/product management team. He had been the program manager for a suite of open-source developer tools and I was onboarding to take over as he moved to his new role. Gaurav is a natural leader. He understands how to motivate people and bring out their energy and their best work. For example, during my onboarding, he thoughtfully assigned work that effectively leveraged my existing skillset while I picked up new topics. These quick wins allowed me to immediately begin adding value to the team while we worked on levelling up my technical knowledge of the product. In addition, he nudged me in the right directions to become an integrated part of the team. He connected me to the right folks when I had certain questions or blockers and helped me get recognized for my achievements. On top of his management skills, Gaurav has a deep understanding of genomics and how to improve it with technology, which allows him to
