Summary
Anurag Sarkar is a pragmatic engineer-founder with 9 years of experience building backend systems, AI infrastructure, and developer tooling across startups and hyperscalers. He co-founded Sift and has driven product-to-customer delivery while previously shaping network and LLM ingestion infrastructure at AWS Sagemaker and console tooling for cloud networking. His background spans maps and routing systems at Swiggy, analytics-driven product work at Apollo, and performance-focused APIs and observability at OYO, reflecting a habit of turning messy data and brittle services into scalable, debuggable platforms. Comfortable down to hardware and edge devices, he blends systems-level thinking with hands-on coding in Go, Python, and cloud-native stacks. Colleagues would note his eclectic skillset that he adapts by mood and need—equally at home shipping production services or prototyping hardware-inflected solutions.
