Summary
Ashwath Rajendran is a seasoned software engineer with 13 years’ experience building reliable, high-impact backend and storage systems at companies including Facebook, Microsoft, Cisco and IBM. He holds an M.S. in Computer Science from Texas A&M and has repeatedly driven measurable production improvements—cutting Intune’s DR recovery time from 21 to 6 hours, halving read latency for heavy queries, and enabling no-downtime SQL migrations. Comfortable leading small teams end-to-end, he has designed load-balancing and secondary-read features that boosted availability and reduced operational costs. Based in Bellevue, WA, he pairs deep systems engineering skills with a pragmatic focus on observability and performance, and often surfaces non-obvious gains by rethinking data flow and replica distribution.
