Summary
Maninder Batth is a Principal API Architect with 11+ years building secure, cloud-native API ecosystems for enterprises including Lumen, UPS, Citi, JP Morgan Chase and NASA. He specializes in making APIs “Agent-Ready,” combining OpenAPI/OIDC governance with RAG knowledge fabrics so LLMs and copilots can discover and call services reliably. His work spans multi-cloud architectures, event-driven systems (Kafka, CQRS), and zero-trust identity patterns (Okta, OAuth 2.1, MTLS) to harden production platforms and reduce developer friction. At Lumen he drove a measurable 40% reduction in hallucination by feeding verified API specs into Copilot Spaces and operationalized AI traffic governance to protect core network stability. Comfortable moving between legacy integrations and modern cognitive architectures, he pairs hands-on Spring Boot/Kubernetes engineering with strategic standards like MCP, AsyncAPI and GraphQL federation. Based in DeWitt, Michigan, he brings a mix of financial and technical grounding—an uncommon Masters in Finance layered atop deep systems and identity expertise.
