Gaurav Nanda — Engineering Manager
I like solving problems at the intersection of infrastructure, developer experience, and scale. At Databricks, I focus on platform and networking systems that enable secure and reliable connectivity for Data and AI services used by thousands of developers. Much of my work centers on improving how teams create, connect, and operate services efficiently. I enjoy turning complex systems into simple workflows that help developers focus on building products instead of managing infrastructure. I am interested in how platforms evolve over time, and how the right abstractions, tooling, and culture can make large engineering organizations faster and more resilient. I often share what I learn about platform engineering, distributed systems, and intelligent infrastructure through writing, mentoring, and speaking.
