Amit Zafran is a pragmatic infrastructure and backend leader with 11 years of experience building high-throughput, cost-efficient systems for intelligence, blockchain, and cloud environments. A founding member of a stealth startup and former AWS Solutions Architect, he combines hands-on engineering—Kubernetes, Spark, Trino, Redis, Docker—with leadership honed in Unit 8200 to deliver observability, data lake, and FAAS platforms that scale. He has a track record of cutting cloud costs dramatically, introducing Trino to save developer hours, and boosting throughput and availability through pragmatic architecture and automation. Comfortable briefing CXO stakeholders and mentoring engineers alike, Amit blends technical depth from an MS/BS in Computer Science with a delivery-first mindset and a penchant for squeezing more efficiency out of infrastructure.
