About

Hi, I'm Swasthik Shetty(Swaaz)! I’m a Software Engineer II at Google bridging the gap between 'Code that works' and 'Code that scales.' I’m specialized in making complex infrastructure boringly reliable. I spend my days writing Go-based microservices that automate disaster recovery. Essentially, I build the digital parachutes for high-availability platforms so the internet stays happy. 🛠 I Build: High-availability platforms and Disaster Recovery tools (Go, Python, GCP & Microservices). 🤝 I Lead: Former GitHub Campus Expert & Mentor to 6+ successful interns at Google. 🐛 I Fix: From outages in BigQuery to production errors in production protecting entire Google. Whether it's designing a new microservice from scratch or debugging a haunted legacy codebase, I’m your guy. Always open to hearing about the next big challenge (or a really good hackathon)."
