Preeti Sawant is a senior software engineer with a decade of experience building and operating cloud-native, high-availability systems across companies like Niantic and IBM. She combines a master’s in computer science with deep hands-on skills in SRE, Kubernetes, Terraform, Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, and buildpack/runtime maintenance for languages including Java, Node.js, and .NET. At Niantic she designed scalable GCP infrastructures, SLIs/SLOs and automation that reduced cost and improved four‑9s availability, and at IBM she contributed to widely used WebSphere buildpacks, including maintenance and compression feature work in a notable Cloud Foundry repo. Based in Bellevue, WA, she bridges software engineering and operational excellence, routinely performing real-time root cause analysis and incident postmortems. Curious and security-minded, she also has exposure to networking, ethical hacking, and cloud/big-data technologies, making her adept at both platform reliability and developer-facing tooling.
