Senior🎓
Top SchoolRahul Rane is a Senior Software Engineer with 9 years of experience building high-performance storage and distributed systems for companies like LinkedIn, Facebook, Airbnb and HPE. He has driven production-critical infrastructure work—from designing scalable Zookeeper authentication/ACL systems and optimizing shard management to building a Rust-based key-value store that achieved 1M QPS and sub-10ms writes. His background spans filesystem-level innovations (CASL, DmDedup) to exabyte-scale blob storage and cloud backup deduplication, giving him deep expertise in consistency, availability and operational robustness. Based in San Jose, he combines research-rooted problem solving from his Stony Brook MS with hands-on engineering that reduces downtime and improves system efficiency. Notably, he’s taken systems from 0-to-1 in production, blending low-level performance tuning with distributed coordination at scale.
