Prateek Ladha — CEO

Engineering leader with 15 years of experience building global-scale SaaS and platform systems across AI, data, and cloud-native architectures. I’ve led full-stack engineering across consumer, retail, and AI-driven platforms — scaling teams, re-architecting legacy systems, and building products that handle millions of users and petabytes of data. My expertise lies in building high-velocity engineering teams, scaling systems, and delivering reliable, high-performance products in dynamic, distributed environments. Highlights: • Led architecture and development of multi-service, microservice-based platforms deployed on AWS and GCP. • Scaled multiple squads across backend, data, mobile, and platform — driving release velocity and reliability. • Deep hands-on experience with Java (Spring Boot), Node.js, Python, Kubernetes, MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, ArangoDB and Redis. • Built observability and SRE stacks with Clickhouse, Prometheus, Grafana, Signoz, and OpenTelemetry. • Designed data ingestion, search, and AI workflows integrating LLM and RAG-based intelligence using langchain and llamaindex. Known for combining architecture rigor with agile delivery, I focus on clear communication, fast iteration, and long-term maintainability — keeping systems simple, reliable, and ready to scale. Core Strengths: Cloud & Infrastructure (AWS, GCP, K8s) · Microservices Architecture · High-Concurrency Systems · SaaS Product Engineering · SRE / Observability · AI / Data Platforms · Team Scaling & Mentorship Open to building next-generation platforms — FinTech, Retail SaaS, or Open Commerce — that combine intelligence, scalability, and impact.
