Omkar Kulkarni is a Staff Software Engineer based in the San Francisco Bay Area with nearly a decade focused on high-performance computing, exa-scale I/O, and enterprise-scale data pipelines. He has driven critical infrastructure at Intel—building a Raft-backed metadata service for DAOS, zero-copy shuffles and I/O-forwarding middleware for HPC—and later led segment management and platform work at LiveRamp and Stripe before joining ServiceTitan. A perpetual learner with an M.Sc. in High Performance Computing, he blends deep systems expertise with practical production experience in distributed storage, low-latency I/O, and large-scale data integration. Known for optimizing open-source parallel I/O and making Hadoop run on HPC stacks, he thrives on solving performance and scalability problems that sit at the intersection of research-grade systems and enterprise products.
