Summary
Arun Sudhir is a Senior Principal Engineer with 11+ years of experience designing and scaling infrastructure and backend systems across top cloud and consumer platforms. He has driven critical initiatives at Oracle, Eightfold, AWS, Microsoft and Amazon, spanning search, caching, pub/sub, analytics, DB infra and agentic AI platforms as well as security-focused projects like FIDO2/WebAuthn for Amazon. A deep generalist, he combines strong CS fundamentals—algorithms, data structures and language design—with hands-on expertise in Java/J2EE, distributed services, OLAP/Redshift, and scripting (Perl, shell, VBA). Arun has repeatedly bootstrapped and hardened infra at scale, owning end-to-end health and performance for high-throughput services. Based in Redmond, he brings a rarer blend of product-facing API work (OneNote, Aurora extensions) and low-level tooling fluency from early-career systems and client-side projects. Outside core infra he’s comfortable across the stack—LAMP, Flash/AS3, front-end web design—and often surfaces practical automation that speeds team delivery.
