Maharsh Hetal Gheewala — Software Engineer
I’m a Software Engineer II at Amazon Lab126, where I build large-scale, event-driven backend and ML systems for Amazon Astro, the home robotics platform. My work focuses on real-time identity resolution, speaker attribution, and knowledge graph infrastructure that allow Astro to understand who’s interacting, where they are, and what context it’s in—all under strict latency and reliability budgets. I’ve designed and deployed pipelines that process 300+ TPS across distributed household devices, integrating multimodal classifiers (voice, vision, session) to reduce speaker mis-attribution from 30% to 1%, and cut cross-user memory corruption by 95%. I also delivered the Artifact Synchronization Infrastructure, powering Floor Plan, Wi-Fi map, and Hangout Spot generation through AWS services like S3, SNS, and SQS. Working closely with the Visual Perception Science team, I fused high-frequency vision signals (every 200 ms) with spatial and presence data to support downstream Mobility and Sentry systems, improving entity consistency and reducing false positives by 90%. I’ve also architected a hybrid in-memory and on-disk knowledge graph layer optimized for eMMC wear (~100 MB/day) while maintaining real-time query performance. I enjoy the intersection of backend engineering, applied ML, and robotics—turning perception outputs into intelligent, stateful systems that behave predictably in the real world. Beyond work, I prototype applied AI projects, contribute to open-source ML tooling, and study how responsible AI principles can be embedded directly into product architecture.
