Summary
Raj Saxena is a Director of Engineering and hands-on polyglot full-stack engineer with 11+ years building cloud-native, autoscaling platforms and resilient distributed systems. He built Moss’s cloud platform from scratch—driving Infrastructure-as-Code, secret management, full CI/CD, feature toggles, blue-green rollouts and an automation-first culture that sustains a lean 1 SRE per 15 engineers. Deeply experienced in JVM ecosystems (Kotlin/Java/Spring Boot), concurrent and reactive architectures, and multi-database designs (Postgres, MongoDB, Cassandra, MySQL and Neo4j for a 2M-file sync feature), he balances performance engineering with cost-effective operations on GCP and AWS. Formerly a tech lead at N26 and senior consultant at ThoughtWorks, he combines startup grit with rigorous engineering practices to deliver production-grade systems at scale. An understated strength is his ability to translate operational constraints into developer-friendly platform features that reduce toil and accelerate shipping.
