Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAndon Andonov is a Senior Software Engineer in Seattle with 11 years of experience building high-availability, low-latency services for cloud platforms, currently focusing on resilience for Databricks’ Settings Platform. He has driven performance and scalability at Microsoft—designing caching and scaling services that enabled 5x traffic growth and managing systems serving >100k QPS for Azure ML Managed Endpoints. Deep systems and runtime expertise is a constant theme: he contributed C++ code generation and build/release improvements to the experimental .NET Core AOT runtime (CoreRT), and has a track record of reducing routing overheads to single-digit milliseconds. Comfortable across distributed systems, Kubernetes, gRPC, and runtime toolchains, he blends production reliability work with developer-facing engineering excellence. A practical tinkerer from academic robotics to cloud-scale services, he pairs rigorous CS foundations (First Class BSc, Newcastle) with hands-on open-source contributions that improve tooling and performance.
