Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKrishna Penukonda is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building agentic AI systems and production-grade ML platforms, now focused on real-time conversational video avatars at Tavus in Singapore. Previously he led engineering at Hypotenuse AI, architecting and scaling LLM-driven content and image-generation pipelines, CI/CD, observability, and SRE practices that materially increased developer velocity and release quality. His background in computer vision includes gigapixel histopathology segmentation and real-time detection/tracking for autonomous vehicles, giving him deep hands-on ML and systems expertise across both research and product settings. Comfortable spanning infrastructure, release engineering, and model-driven product features, he combines practical automation (one-click CI/CD, RAG pipelines, rate-limiting) with a maker’s attention to performance and reliability. Notably, he brings an uncommon cross-domain fluency—shipping large-scale e-commerce automation one week and optimizing real-time video agents the next.
