Japneet Singh Chawla — Engineering Manager
I’m an Engineering Manager with 9+ years of experience building and scaling distributed systems, SaaS platforms, and developer tools. After spending most of my career as a hands-on backend engineer (Golang, Python, Node.js, Kafka, Redis, Cloud infra), I recently transitioned into management, where I now focus on enabling teams to deliver customer-centric, high-impact solutions. At LambdaTest, I currently lead a team of engineers driving critical initiatives like Hyperexecute, Automation Testing Platform and Integrations like Cypress, Provar, Tosca, Selenium improving test execution efficiency and adoption by 500+ enterprise clients. I’ve also spearheaded zero-downtime deployments, reducing release-related downtime by 90%, and helped onboard/mentor new engineers into productive contributors. Previously at Sumo Logic, I built award-winning developer tools (like the VS Code Parser Linter) and drove cross-geo collaboration to streamline parser development. At Indus Valley Partners, I was a founding member of the Sentiment Analyzer product team, where I developed ML-powered solutions for financial clients. 💡 What excites me most is the challenge of taking products from 0→1, scaling teams, and solving customer problems through innovation. I thrive at the intersection of technology, leadership, and product impact — mentoring engineers, improving processes, and aligning execution with business goals.
