Top SchoolAshwin Nair is a Principal Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building low-latency, scalable platforms across AdTech and Geo-data domains, currently leading technology at Atlassian after a recent stint heading engineering at Alphabyte. He specializes in distributed systems, search and analytics (Elasticsearch, ClickHouse, Kafka, Spark), and cloud-native SaaS architectures, pairing deep backend expertise in Java/Python with hands-on work across Redis, MongoDB, Docker, and AWS.
