Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAkul Kapoor is a software engineer focused on cloud-native infrastructure and automation, currently working on Google Kubernetes Engine after a prior role in Network Automation at Google. With 11 years of experience spanning network engineering, cloud operations, and infrastructure security, he blends deep networking know-how (WAN, routers, firewalls, load balancers) with Python-driven automation and AWS proficiency. He has a track record of cutting deployment times and operational costs through automation—examples include CloudFormation/Ansible SSL workflows and ElasticSearch snapshot lifecycle automation. Comfortable across both hands-on network operations and platform engineering, he’s equally at ease writing Cisco IOS event scripts as building cloud automation to integrate Jenkins and office IoT for developer feedback. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he pairs a Master’s in Networking from the University of Pittsburgh with production-scale experience at Google, bringing practical reliability and security focus to large distributed systems. A curiosity for pragmatic tooling and process improvements often leads him to solve problems by automating repetitive operational pain points.
