Arjun Sreedharan is a versatile engineer with 12 years of experience building and optimizing cloud-native build and deployment tooling, currently working at Broadcom after multi-year engineering roles at VMware and SAP Labs. He specializes in DevOps and backend automation, with extensive open-source contributions to Cloud Foundry buildpacks for Python, PHP, Ruby, Node.js and static sites—improving build reliability, dependency management, and test infrastructure. Comfortable across the stack, he has low-level systems experience too, having written kernel assembly and C for a minimalist OS project. With an M.S. in Computer Science from UMass Amherst and a habit of streamlining complex build processes (including Dynatrace integrations and cross-environment test adaptations), he blends pragmatic engineering with an eye for tooling efficiency.
