Summary
Pratik Nagelia is a software engineer with a decade of experience building scalable distributed systems and real-time data pipelines, currently working on scalability and streaming microservices at Meta. He previously helped Amazon Advertising deliver diagnostics tooling and spent several years at Flipkart designing high-throughput ad services, multi-datacenter HBase replication, and performance optimizations that cut datastore bootstrap times dramatically. His background blends hands-on backend engineering (Java, streaming frameworks, HBase) with academic grounding from an MS in Computer Science at Stony Brook, where he also taught databases and OOP. He has a track record of shipping production systems end-to-end—from registration workflows to ad metadata enrichment—while tackling operational challenges like disaster recovery and load testing. Based in Seattle, Pratik combines large-company experience with a practical focus on performance and reliability that stems from both industry and graduate-level research. A less obvious strength is his history of automating administrative workflows using Google Apps Script, showing a knack for pragmatic tooling in addition to core infrastructure work.
