Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGeorge Kontridze is a founding software engineer with 13 years of experience designing and operating large-scale, reliable infrastructure and developer-friendly platforms from San Francisco. He has led observability and infrastructure initiatives at Plaid—spanning logs, metrics, traces, profiling, ingestion, and querying—and introduced Terraform, Atlantis, and an organizational Kubernetes foundation that drove a company-wide migration. His background spans high-scale media storage at Apple, cross-cloud production migrations at Bugsnag, and systems engineering for global DNS at Verisign, giving him deep operational chops across cloud, on-prem, and data-heavy environments. Known for turning prototypes into production platforms, he blends hands-on systems engineering with product-minded platform work to improve both user and developer experience. Quietly pragmatic, he often surfaces the most impactful, incremental changes (tooling, automation, process) that enable large-scale reliability.
