Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRakesh Kumar is a seasoned technology leader and founder with 11 years of experience building large-scale search and data products from Delhi. As CTO and founder of Augment Systems, he architects real-time, distributed search platforms that combine query understanding, NLP, ranking and personalization to serve hundreds of thousands of users across devices. His hands-on background spans information retrieval, Elastic/Solr/Lucene ecosystems, Spark/Hadoop big-data pipelines, TensorFlow-powered ML, and production Java/C++ services deployed with containerization. He pairs product-focused agility with deep engineering craft—often iterating on algorithms and infrastructure himself—and has a habit of “code golfing” solutions to squeeze efficiency from complex systems. An IIT Delhi alumnus, he brings both academic rigour and entrepreneurial grit to solving search and recommendation challenges at scale.
