Summary
Rajesh Kharya is a senior technical leader with over 10 years of hands-on experience architecting and automating data center solutions on Cisco UCS and HyperFlex, currently leading Solution Automation Engineering for Cisco Intersight in the San Francisco Bay Area. He blends systems-level UNIX/Linux expertise and QA discipline with cloud-native and infrastructure-as-code skills, driving Ansible and Terraform-based automation, OpenAPI workflows, and orchestration for ISV stacks like Cloudera and Cohesity. Rajesh has a strong track record of translating partner requirements into validated, production-ready automation—authoring reference architectures, performance guides and conference presentations for global forums such as CiscoLive and DockerCon. He pairs technical leadership with lab-driven experimentation, building testbeds, benchmarking alternatives, and turning framework gaps into roadmap features. Not obvious from his title: his background includes deep operational migrations (P2V, RAC clusters) and early UCS platform releases, giving him rare end-to-end perspective from hardware ASIC behavior to cloud orchestration.
