Senior🎓
Top SchoolMahesh Khanwalkar is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable, high-performance systems across ecommerce and logistics. He has applied systems, networking, and OS-level expertise at Amazon to automate resource provisioning, enable same-day marketplace features, and detect delivery anomalies, and now contributes architectural work at The Farmer's Dog. His research background from Georgia Tech and projects like NioFlex, xv6-vfs, and LexBuild demonstrate a deep interest in low-level systems, compilers, and concurrency control beyond typical application engineering. Mahesh routinely leverages cloud-native tooling (Step Functions, Lambdas, SQS) to operationalize complex workflows and reduce onboarding friction. He balances production impact with open-source experimentation, hosting most personal projects on GitHub and exploring runtime and VFS designs not commonly tackled in industry roles. Based in West Windsor, NJ, he combines academic rigour with hands-on delivery in distributed systems and infrastructure automation.
