About

I am a software engineer in the Block Storage team at Apple Cloud. I have 7+ years experience building highly performant and available distributed storage systems. My specialization lie in of Rust, C, storage systems, file systems, Linux Kernel, system performance. At Apple, I work on the data path for a team building the storage service from first principles. My work involves building a high performant and resilient data path. I also deal with debugging and optimizing complex system performance and correctness issues. Prior to that I was a Staff Software Engineer in the File Systems/Data Path team of VMware's Virtual SAN Product. For Summer'17 I was an intern at VMware working in the cloud platform infrastructure team working on a data protection solution. My work there was granted a US Patent. During my grad school, I was a student researcher in the File Systems and Storage Lab , Stony Brook University. I was working on research projects in the domain of Storage Systems under the guidance of Prof. Erez Zadok. Our work was published in USENIX ATC '18. Contact: satiwari@cs.stonybrook.edu
