Sankaranarayanan Viswanathan

Engineering leader · AI transformation consultant · Scientific visualization builder

Hello, I'm Sankar. Based in Bangalore. 28 years of software engineering and engineering leadership across telecom, flash storage, and electric vehicles. I'm now an independent consultant on AI-assisted software development, working with engineering teams adopting AI coding agents in real codebases.

Outside work, I build interactive 3D astronomy visualizations — 40+ lunar missions, satellite conjunctions, planetary alignments — and give public talks on space missions, eclipses, comets, and orbital mechanics. Curious by nature, skeptical by habit, rational by effort, liberal by choice.
