Summary
Reitwiec Shandilya is a cloud-native software engineer and Venture Fellow with eight years of experience building reliable AI and infrastructure platforms for enterprise-scale deployments. He led major re-architectures at SAP—migrating provisioning to Crossplane, creating multi-cloud config orchestration, and building inference/benchmarking stacks—and at MongoDB sped Atlas cluster migrations by 75% through Kubernetes automation. Equally at home in product and academia, he supported Cornell Tech startup accelerators and taught ML engineering coursework while now evaluating early-stage ventures at 645 Ventures. He blends systems thinking with pragmatic DevOps: observability, disaster recovery, and scale-to-zero serving are recurring themes across his work. A maker with roots in large open-source and campus projects, he’s comfortable shipping both low-level control-plane improvements and developer-facing orchestration that prevent config drift across AWS, Azure, GCP and AliCloud.
