Mayank Lahiri is a technical leader and software architect with 13 years building scalable distributed systems, cloud-native platforms, and machine learning/data-mining solutions across companies like Meta, Twilio, Oracle, Google, and AWS. He has driven large-scale architectural modernizations—most recently prototyping Twilio’s next-gen edge proxy and leading cloud migrations and platform consolidations that span multiple product teams and acquisitions. His career blends deep research experience (a PhD focused on time-evolving graph analysis) with product-first engineering, from founding a serverless startup to shipping consumer-scale features and secretive AWS projects like Honeycode. Mayank is known for mentoring senior engineers into architect roles and for pragmatic decisions to replace or rewrite legacy systems when it unlocks business velocity. Less obvious: he holds multiple patents from early work at Facebook and has applied academic insights to practical tools, such as a barcode scanner for wildlife field studies. Based in San Francisco, he combines hands-on technical breadth with strategic leadership across cloud, data, and platform engineering.
