Raghu Koratagere — CTO

As Vice President of Engineering at NoBroker, I lead the data engineering organization, building petabyte-scale systems that power smarter, faster business decisions. I’m deeply motivated by delivering petabyte-class data lakes with near-real-time freshness, ruthlessly optimized for cost, performance, and reliability. We’ve architected and operated custom lakehouse platforms tailored precisely to NoBroker’s needs—fueling analytics and applied AI for internal teams and external partners. One highlight is our work on building an intelligent auto-scaling platform that understands query patterns and proactively predicts capacity needs, significantly improving efficiency and cost control. Beyond data platforms, I also drive mission-critical enterprise SaaS systems, including: * A comprehensive Property Management Platform * Home Services aggregation and fulfillment systems * Lead & CRM platforms * High-scale e-commerce * Buyer application for ONDC e-commerce * Revenue forecasting and planning systems These platforms have delivered measurable impact: accelerated revenue growth, sharper operations, improved customer experience, and consistent execution against aggressive company targets. With 25+ years in technology, I enjoy building scalable products that solve real problems and directly move the business needle. I’m particularly passionate about cost-efficient data infrastructure, high-velocity architectures, applied AI, and building high-performing engineering teams in fast-moving environments. Always happy to connect with engineering leaders, data practitioners, and platform builders. Let’s talk data engineering, lakehouse strategy, applied AI, cost-vs-performance trade-offs, or the evolving role of AI in large-scale systems.

Crown jewel is the custom DataLake. We have acheived a large 70% reudction in the operating cost of our data lake. At the same time the P95 has been sub second and concurrency of few hundreds QPS. All this using open source solutions and with a smart but small team of DEs.
Other than this, I manage multiple business critical applications for Comprehensive Property MS, HomeServices - Aggregation platform for complete lead-sale-service of our services, Custom - CRM to manage sales organization across verticals etc.
