After graduating from college, Ramaswamy researched database analytics for three years at
Bell Labs and held similar positions at
Lucent Technologies and
Bell Communications Research. While working for
E.piphany as a
machine learning systems developer, Google began recruiting engineers from the company. In 2013, he was promoted to senior vice president of advertising and commerce at Google. Ramaswamy left Google in 2018 to become a partner at
venture capitalist firm
Greylock Partners. In 2019, he created Neeva as an alternative to
Google Search, after becoming disillusioned with the limitations of the ad-supported search model. Instead of ads, Ramaswamy planned a subscription-based model for Neeva. Neeva was acquired by
Snowflake Inc. in 2023. In February 2024, Ramaswamy succeeded
Frank Slootman as Snowflake's CEO. ==Personal life==
