Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmit Herlekar is a Senior Lead in Software Engineering with 10+ years of experience designing and delivering cloud-native, scalable distributed systems across private and public clouds. He combines hands-on development in Java and Python with infrastructure automation using Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible and Helm to turn monoliths and containers into resilient, autoscaling microservices. At Kyndryl he re-architected latency-sensitive services—converting a Spring Boot microservice to an asyncio/multiprocessing Python service—cutting startup time to two seconds and improving streaming throughput. He has led performance and scale testing for enterprise clients, introduced event-driven autoscaling and parallel metadata processing that improved tool performance by ~60%, and earned a patent earlier in his career for a VMware integration. A proactive mentor and pragmatic problem-solver, Amit pairs engineering ownership with product collaboration to deliver production-ready automation for resilience and recovery. Based in Bengaluru, he blends deep storage and backup domain experience with a knack for reimagining architecture for performance.
