Gaurav Patney — CTO

I am a Software Engineering Leader with over 20 years of experience building, scaling, and securing high availability platforms. ● 7+ years of technical leadership in security infrastructure and large scale distributed systems. ● 4+ years as an Engineering Manager, building and leading high performing teams. ● Deep technical foundation in data structures and hyperscale system design. ● Consistent record of building, scaling, securing large scale distributed systems and high availability platforms. ● Architected, enhanced platforms to 99.995% availability at scale (20 million+ requests per second on server, 100 million+ requests per second on client, sub-50ms P90 latency and sub-10ms P50 latency, billions of IAM policies). Outside of my primary role, I dedicate my weekends to a non profit initiative focused on AI sustainability, architecting and developing solutions for hyperscale AI infrastructure. Key areas of focus include: ● Optimizing resource allocation across millions of nodes to maximize GPU and accelerator efficiency. ● Solving complex infrastructure challenges such as advanced fragmentation control and optimized interconnect topology. ● Implementing intelligent workload prioritization to ensure massive AI clusters operate with peak energy efficiency. ● Minimizing the environmental footprint and energy consumption of next generation data centers. Core Strengths: Distributed Systems at scale | Scalability | Availability | Distributed Storage (Google Spanner, Cassandra, MySQL, NOSQL) | Languages (Java, Go, C++) | Kubernetes | Observability | Agentic AI | Model Context Protocol (MCP) | Agent2Agent Protocol (A2A) | Strategic Planning | Cross-functional Collaboration | Team Building | Performance Management | Mentorship & Coaching | Executive Communication
