Prasad Shirvandkar is a software engineer and MS student at University at Buffalo with a decade of engineering exposure and three years of hands-on development in financial services and consumer products. He has built high-impact backend systems using Java, Spring, Elasticsearch, microservices and Kafka—delivering measurable improvements like 65% fewer mobile notifications, 77% faster multi-db queries, and 80% faster builds by decoupling monoliths. At Barclays he automated API stubbing and PSD2 SCA flows, earning recognition for cutting test/setup time by 20x and improving login speed threefold, while at Morgan Stanley he led scalable Elasticsearch and observability work across regions. Now focused on Android at Grammarly, he pairs backend systems thinking with UI interest (Kotlin, Android, Firebase) and a strong emphasis on security and test coverage. Outside work he’s an avid smartphone and space follower and a passionate Formula 1 fan—traits that mirror his curiosity for fast, elegant engineering.
