Summary
Rashmi Raghu is a Senior Software Engineer based in Palo Alto with nine years of experience building high-throughput backend and full‑stack systems, currently contributing to PayPal’s payments platform while pursuing an MS in Computer Science at UCLA. She specializes in fintech, subscriptions, and payment integrations, having designed resilient batch-driven pipelines and services that handle global data for hundreds of countries and drive multi‑million dollar revenue. A practiced scrum master, she blends hands‑on coding with team leadership, automation initiatives that cut manual work from weeks to days, and quality efforts that slashed regression times dramatically. Her background spans startups to FAANG internships, giving her fluency in migrations, observability tools (Splunk/Datadog/CloudWatch), and cloud-native deployments. Curious about cryptography and puzzles, she brings a methodical, security-minded approach to system design and a knack for building small developer tools (like class-version comparison plugins) that reduce production incidents.
