Speaker Bio
I am an Architect with over 16 years of experience in designing and delivering scalable, efficient and customer centric solutions. Currently, I spend most of my days working with Fortune 500 customers tailor their streaming ecosystems to solve their problems elegantly. My job entails helping them see the corner cases that they might run into, architect their data streaming systems for scale and resiliency, engrain observability as a must before production go-live and lately evangelize how to be mindful about costs with the ecosystem. Before Confluent, I architected large scale streaming solutions - think real time fraud detection, CDC at scale, geo-replication etc for big corporations and multi-nationals.

When I am off the clock, I’m generally out chasing golden-hour shots where I can. Nothing clears your head like a sunset over a beach overlooking the golden haze and surreal sunsets in San Francisco.
