About

Hello, I’m Subrahmanyam. I’m an Engineering Leader who loves building scalable, efficient, and high-performance systems. At Meta, I focus on making sure WhatsApp data is handled responsibly while ensuring system reliability and scalability. Over the years, I have worked on cost optimization, large-scale system design, and performance engineering, delivering solutions that improve efficiency and reduce operational overhead. At PayPal, I helped build real-time fraud detection systems, and at HighRadius, I worked on data-driven solutions that saved merchants money. I thrive on solving complex engineering challenges, leading teams through high-impact technical decisions, and designing architectures that scale effortlessly. My work sits at the intersection of technical execution and strategic impact, ensuring that engineering solutions are not just functional but built to last. Always happy to chat; whether it’s about engineering, leadership, or just exchanging ideas. Let’s connect!
