Top SchoolChandan Prakash is a Senior Engineering Manager based in Bengaluru with over 16 years' experience in Big Data, distributed systems and the JVM ecosystem, and more than a decade leading production data-engineering teams. He built and now leads Walmart Connect’s Ads Targeting organization in India, shipping ML-backed targeting and propensity pipelines using Scala, Spark and Hive while coordinating offshore teams, product stakeholders and hiring. Prior roles at Qubole and AppLift show deep expertise in stream processing at scale—implementing RocksDB-backed state stores, custom checkpointing, and high-throughput Spark Streaming pipelines processing tens of thousands of events/sec. Known for solving operational pain points in cloud streaming and for re-architecting ML data pipelines end-to-end, he blends hands-on coding and architecture with people leadership. An interesting signal of his craft: he has repeatedly taken prototype streaming ideas through to hardened, production-ready features that improve advertiser ROI and platform reliability.
