Summary
Davud Kaplan is a Senior Software Engineer II based in the NYC area with a decade of hands-on experience building scalable platform and data systems across AWS, Audible, and enterprise finance. He holds an M.S. in Software Engineering and has led cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact features—ranging from a global AWS invoicing migration rolled out to 100% of traffic to Audible’s kid-safe profiles and SDK integrations for partners like Tesla. Davud has a proven track record of operational excellence, cutting Audible’s data storage costs by ~$400k/year while reducing process faults by 99.6%, and he proactively remediates privacy risks through thoughtful rearchitecture.

A pragmatic problem-solver who enjoys coding for its own sake, he often focuses on automation, testing, and telemetry to make systems more reliable and maintainable.
