Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGaurav Aggarwal is a software engineer with a strong foundation in distributed systems, databases, and cloud computing, backed by an MS in Computer Science from Stony Brook University and roughly eight years of industry experience. He has built scalable, geo-replicated data platforms and high-throughput web backends—most recently contributing to Google’s Service Control team after work on data architecture at Goldman Sachs and a 500GB+ Django-based data crucible at Centre ValBio. Comfortable across the full stack, he programs in Java, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and C/C++, and routinely leverages React, Angular, Spring Boot, Node.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP). He has led small teams and shipped performance and reliability improvements—examples include a Patroni/ETCD-backed PostgreSQL cluster that sped syncing and an Angular dashboard serving thousands of users. Gaurav combines practical engineering with research-minded problem solving (RNN-based forecasting and automated data pipelines) and a knack for reducing operational overhead through automation and architectural choices. Based in Seattle, he enjoys applying generative AI and modern tooling to systems that demand scalability and fault tolerance.
