Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPeleg Litvak is a seasoned backend and data-oriented software engineer with a decade of experience building scalable, production-grade data infrastructures and ETL pipelines. He has designed end-to-end systems that process hundreds of millions of daily events—leveraging Kafka, Spark/EMR, Iceberg/Athena, and a mix of AWS services—while productionizing ML models for real-time inference using DynamoDB and Redis feature stores. At Palo Alto Networks and in open-source work on the popular Checkov project he combined security-minded engineering with practical code analysis contributions around Bicep support and suppression handling. His background spans geo-spatial road-network graph solutions, high-throughput Java services, and migrating complex customer-facing apps, demonstrating both deep systems thinking and hands-on implementation. Based in Hod HaSharon, Israel, he’s as comfortable owning Terraform- and K8s-driven deployments as he is improving code quality and maintainability across distributed platforms.
