Parth Mehta, Server Engineering Lead (Fleet)

Parth works on the Fleet Android app and the backend systems that power it. As a member of the Fleet team, his work deals with onboarding Postmates couriers, helping them do a job, and ensuring they get paid. Parth has a Master's in Software Engineering from Carnegie Mellon and a Bachelor's in ECE from India. When not working, Parth enjoys spending time making pizza, eating pizza, and playing board games while eating pizza.

James Lee, Android Engineering Lead (Seller)

James works on the Seller app. His work ensures that merchant partners are able to perform tasks that range from managing menus and store hours to successfully receiving and preparing orders to a customer's desires. He is a Bay Area lifer, having grown up in the Peninsula, graduating with a Bachelor's in EECS from UC Berkeley, and now residing in the East Bay. James started Android development back in the Gingerbread days and enjoys finding harmless, satirical gems like Fragnums that pop up when researching best practices. Outside of work, he has a hard time turning down a good board game and enjoys going for short runs in his neighborhood.

Gaurav Murti, Android Engineer (Buyer)

Gaurav is on the Buyer team, working on the consumer experience from feed to post-checkout. He enjoys making hangry customers happy. He doesn't have much of a sweet tooth, but he loves everything from Lollipop to Pie :). Seeing apps come to life makes him happy and he truly believes that they are here to stay. He has a Masters degree from USC, is originally from India, and likes ordering Indian food on Postmates. Outside of work, he is a sports enthusiast and follows cricket, soccer, and basketball.

Although she is currently located in the Bay Area, she is originally from Canada and earned her B.Math. and M.Eng. degrees there, with a focus on business systems management and code generation research respectively. Her past work experience includes Fandango, Flixster/Rotten Tomatoes, and Sun Life Financial. Outside of work, Bianca is an active speaker and member of the tech community. She is also a certified yoga and lyra instructor and circus enthusiast, so you can almost always find her at the studio.
