Neerja Mishra — Product Manager
With 12+ years of experience in building and scaling data-intensive and distributed systems, I bring a strong blend of hands-on technical depth and people leadership. My background spans system design, high-performance backend development, and data platforms using technologies such as Java, Spark, Kafka, Hadoop, MongoDB, Druid, HBase, Elasticsearch, and cloud-native architectures. I have led the design and delivery of scalable, reliable systems, partnering closely with product and business stakeholders to translate requirements into robust technical solutions. I’m deeply involved in architecture decisions, performance optimization, and engineering best practices, while ensuring teams deliver with quality and predictability. Beyond technology, my focus has increasingly been on building and growing strong engineering teams. I have mentored fresh graduates and junior engineers, supported their technical and career growth, and fostered a culture of ownership, learning, and collaboration. Seeing engineers evolve into confident contributors has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. I have also been a core member of hiring panels, interviewing and onboarding talent across experience levels. I’ve contributed to shaping teams by evaluating both technical excellence and cultural fit, helping build high-performing, impact-driven teams.
