Rahul Singhai is a Principal Engineer based in the UK with a two-decade technical foundation and 11 years focused on leading large-scale data, AI/ML and platform transformations. He architects enterprise-grade Lakehouse and event-driven platforms (Apache Flink, Iceberg, Kafka) and modern MLOps stacks (Seldon, MLflow, Valohai) to deliver real-time personalization, semantic search and GenAI readiness. At Tripadvisor he defined the North Star vision for Viator’s data/ML platform, built unified synthetic data tooling, and drove ~$300k in annual cost savings through BigQuery optimization and platform benchmarking. Prior roles at Santander and Barclays show repeated success building greenfield platforms, recruiting and scaling teams of 100+ engineers, and operationalizing security-sensitive real-time analytics. He blends low-latency systems experience from database and C++ kernel work with pragmatic cloud-native delivery (Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD) and serves as an incident commander during critical outages. Not obvious from the title: he pairs deep systems plumbing expertise with hands-on ML experimentation infrastructure to shorten time-to-insight across enterprises.
