Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRupinder Dhanoa is a Software Engineering Manager in the San Francisco Bay Area with 11 years of experience building and leading teams to deliver production-grade web and deployment tooling. At Zendesk he progressed from Staff Engineer to manager, driving improvements in deployment workflows, monitoring integrations, and database schema changes that improved observability and release safety. He brings full-stack instincts—demonstrated in open-source contributions to zendesk/samson—where he added Datadog and Jenkins integrations and refactored code and tests to support safer, more transparent deploys. With an MS in Software Engineering from San Jose State and a BS from Punjab Technical University, he pairs hands-on coding discipline with people leadership and a pragmatic focus on operational reliability. An engineer who still contributes to open-source deployment tooling, he balances strategic team direction with a willingness to dive into backend, UI, and testing details.
