Summary
Piyush Srivastava is a Principal Engineer at DigitalOcean with over a decade of hands-on experience designing and scaling IaaS and distributed systems. He has deep expertise in compute and network virtualization, having led major efforts across VPC, Kubernetes, serverless, and global network control planes that materially grew the business while improving customer experience. Comfortable shifting between individual technical contribution and multi-region engineering leadership, he has launched GA serverless products and integrated an acquired startup while managing cross-continental teams. Based in Portland, he combines product-minded architecture with mentorship and a track record of turning complex cloud delivery models into reliable, production-grade platforms. An MS in Computer Science underpins a career focused on pragmatic scalability rather than academic novelty, and his work often sits at the intersection of networking, orchestration, and developer-facing cloud primitives.
