Ankit Aggarwal — CTO
As a DevOps Engineering Leader at Zoom, I bring over 15 years of experience in designing and scaling cloud infrastructure platforms that emphasize automation, resiliency, and efficiency. My focus is on enabling high-velocity engineering teams through well-architected systems and infrastructure that support growth at scale. At Zoom, I lead cloud transformation initiatives—most notably the migration of EMR-based big data platforms to Kubernetes (EKS) using open-source data processing frameworks. This effort has significantly improved platform elasticity, reduced operational overhead, and optimized infrastructure costs. I collaborate closely with engineering, CloudOps, and security teams to drive infrastructure automation, observability, CI/CD, and container orchestration across Zoom’s core infrastructure. 🔹 My experience includes: * Achieved 30% AWS cost reduction by modernizing infrastructure with IaC and resource optimization * Increased developer velocity by 40% through streamlined CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitOps (in-house) * Ensured 99.99% uptime across business-critical services using Kubernetes, autoscaling, and observability * Designed and launched the Customer External Analytics Reporting Platform on AWS—delivering high availability, scalability, and DR support using EMR, RDS, DynamoDB, Kinesis and MWAA * Led infrastructure initiatives for multi-region high availability and disaster recovery readiness * Built reusable Terraform modules and established governance around cloud adoption across teams * Mentored a team of 8 engineers, fostering DevOps maturity and a strong sense of ownership
