Richa Talwar is a Senior Software Engineer based in Bengaluru with a practical focus on cloud-native systems, containerization, and backend services, leveraging Golang, Java and Clojure. She has driven production automation and operator work for Kubernetes-based platforms at Jio and now contributes to observability and lightweight telemetry at Elastic, including a notable contribution adding RabbitMQ shovel metrics to the widely used Beats project.
