Ashar Kandathil is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with eight years of experience building scalable backend systems and data pipelines. A Management Engineering graduate from the University of Waterloo, he has moved from data engineering and blockchain analytics to operating high-throughput distributed APIs that serve billions of ML inference requests per month. His work spans terabyte-scale ETL, Spark, AWS infrastructure, and production-grade backend services, and he has taken projects from prototype to production as primary engineer. At Hive he focused on scalability and ML-serving APIs, later contributing to product engineering roles at Finch and now Attentive. He blends a strong applied data-engineering foundation with hands-on systems work, and is comfortable owning end-to-end delivery across cloud, streaming, and batch processing stacks. Behind the scenes he’s repeatedly been the engineer who turns exploratory analytics and scripts into reliable, automated pipelines that scale.
