I’m Shashank - a Machine Learning engineer, EB-1A recipient, and architect of large-scale, production ML systems. I work with a small number of serious candidates on high-fidelity ML mock interviews and EB-1A profile building. This is focused, outcome-driven work. For mock interviews, I work primarily with L4, L5 and L6 level ML engineers preparing for loops at top tech companies. Sessions are role- and company-calibrated and designed to mirror real interviews. We cover ML system design, applied ML problem-solving, recommendation systems, NLP/LLMs where relevant, and behavioral rounds from a senior IC perspective. You’ll get direct feedback on your thinking, communication, and decision-making - no fluff, no vague encouragement. The goal is clarity on exactly what would cause you to pass or fail. I also offer selective EB-1A profile consulting for experienced ML practitioners. As an EB-1A recipient myself, I help candidates shape a credible, defensible extraordinary-ability narrative aligned with how USCIS actually evaluates cases. This is not legal advice or petition drafting. The focus is on technical impact, publications, reviews, authorship, professional influence, and identifying gaps early so you can build real signal over time. I work 1:1, with clear scope and timelines, and I’m intentionally selective. I’m not a fit for early-career exploration or generic advice. I work best with candidates who already have substance and want to convert it into outcomes - offers, confidence, or a strong EB-1A profile. If you’re preparing for ML interviews or thinking about EB-1A and want a signal-driven assessment and plan, book a session with context and intent. If there’s a fit, we’ll move forward. If not, I’ll tell you straight. Clarity beats guesswork!
