Summary
Gauri Naik is a Senior Software Engineer based in San Jose with a decade of experience building scalable, production-grade services across AWS, consumer tech, and retail domains. She holds an MS in Computer Science from NC State and has driven performance, reliability, and migration efforts at AWS, Yelp, Whole Foods Market, and now GEICO. Her work spans low-level networking features like IPv6 and EIP allocation at AWS to product-facing data feeds and GraphQL migrations that cut latency and increased engagement. She routinely pairs feature delivery with observability—adding metrics, dashboards, alerts, and automated tests to reduce operational burden and speed development. Colleagues rely on her for cross-team coordination on end-to-end launches and for creating dev environments that remove dependencies on staging, a recurring efficiency win in her roles.
