Top SchoolRajan Patel is a Senior Software Engineer with 8 years of experience designing and shipping highly scalable, event-driven systems—most recently at TikTok after a multi-year tenure at AWS. He specializes in serverless architectures on AWS, having led features like CloudFormation’s Pause-and-Resume and co-led ResourceImport while building cross-account, cross-region StackSets and backend throttling for resilience. Rajan blends hands-on implementation (Lambda, DynamoDB, SQS, S3) with technical leadership, mentoring, and product-facing delivery across large distributed services. Based in Seattle with a strong academic grounding (MS in Computer Science, BTech with a 3.75 GPA), he brings both operational rigor and a knack for turning customer-driven needs into durable platform capabilities.
