Summary
Kapil Kalra is a senior software engineer based in San Francisco with 8 years of experience building cloud-native platforms and production services across AI-infused products. With dual undergraduate training in electrical engineering and physics and an MS in Software Engineering from CMU Silicon Valley, he pairs low-level systems intuition with practical cloud architecture skills. He has delivered scalable serverless and containerized microservices at Cisco and C3 AI, optimized provisioning workflows to cut setup times from hours to minutes, and designed CI/CD and infra-as-code solutions using AWS and Azure. His background spans applied ML areas—computer vision, NLP and speech synthesis—backed by hands-on work creating image pipelines, text-classification services, and real-time analytics. Notably, he’s comfortable moving between .NET, Java, and cloud-native toolchains to turn research-grade models into resilient, observable production systems.
