Summary
Aditya Upadhyaya is a software engineer with nine years of experience building scalable backend systems and analytics infrastructure, currently working at DoorDash in Mountain View. He brings deep systems and AI-infrastructure interests—evident from his writing on systems internals and a GitHub focus on Systems | AI Infrastructure—and has practical experience tuning large distributed data stacks like Apache Druid, Spark, Hive and ETL pipelines. His background spans product-grade SaaS work at Myntra, platform integrity at Meta, and teaching operating systems and algorithms at NYU’s Courant Institute, blending hands-on engineering with strong theoretical grounding. Colleagues would describe him as someone who pairs production pragmatism (monitoring, alerts, performance tuning) with a curiosity for the social and technical dimensions of systems.
