Summary
Gaurav Khandelwal is a Member of Technical Staff based in San Jose with a decade of software engineering experience focused on backend systems, distributed systems, databases, and Kubernetes. He brings deep hands-on expertise in Go, C/C++, Java, Python and large-scale data technologies like Flink, Spark and Hadoop, backed by strong Unix/Linux and cloud tooling skills. At Rubrik since 2017, he has applied that stack to production-grade storage and data-management challenges, building reliable services and scalable APIs. His academic record—MS in Computer Science from University of Minnesota (4.0) and a top-ranked BITS Pilani degree—underscores a rigorous engineering foundation. Comfortable across low-level systems programming and higher-level web and testing frameworks, he pairs protocol/socket-level understanding with modern microservices practices. Colleagues would note his rare blend of systems-level curiosity and practical delivery focus that surfaces in performance-sensitive backend work.
