Hriday Sheth is a Software Engineer based in the San Francisco Bay Area with six years of experience building cloud-native infrastructure and startup products. He combines hands-on systems work—Kubernetes, AWS/GCP integrations, and Nginx ingress—with product-minded engineering learned through founding a Berkeley SkyDeck startup and running user-facing features. At Berkeley RISE Lab and on the open-source SkyPilot project he cut failover times for cloud provisioning by ~97% and added quota checks, improving reliability for multi-cloud ML workloads. Internships at Datadog, MongoDB, and Workday honed his skills in observability, concurrent C++ systems, and automation for core financial tooling. As a Managing Partner at Dorm Room Fund and director of UC Berkeley’s Free Ventures accelerator, he blends technical depth with venture and startup evaluation experience. He graduated from UC Berkeley EECS and is active in the Bay Area startup ecosystem and open-source cloud tooling.
