About me

Hi, I am Saurabh Joshi and I work as a Software Engineer at Kargo Global Inc., developing high-performance advertising solutions for mobile, desktop, and CTV. I started my career in Quality Assurance (QA), where I built automated testing solutions and ensured system reliability. Over time, I transitioned into software engineering, contributing to backend development, large-scale system optimizations, and ad tech integrations. My experience includes working with real-time bidding (RTB), header bidding, OpenRTB, and Prebid, as well as optimizing bidding strategies and maintaining integrations with publishers and DSPs.

I hold an M.S. in Information Sciences & Technologies from RIT and a B.E. in IT from Mumbai University. I have been living in Northeast USA for almost a decade now, but Mumbai, India is still the city I call home. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, cooking vegetarian food, learning guitar, and exploring new technologies.
