Sagar Gaur is a Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable backend systems and agentic AI platforms from startup to product-scale. He has led core architecture and backend teams at Markov ML and ship-ready AI workflow and evaluation systems at Ema, specializing in integrating LLM-driven reasoning with deterministic data pipelines. At MindTickle he drove platform resilience and large‑scale operations, migrating monoliths to gRPC and designing bulk enterprise workflows for customers with 100K+ users. An early open-source contributor to cclib (via Google Summer of Code), he has hands-on experience implementing scientific file writers and fixing subtle serialization issues—an indicator of his attention to detail across domains. Based in India, Sagar combines academic training in computational science (IIIT‑Hyderabad) with practical expertise in on‑prem/cloud deployments and developer experience tooling. He’s equally comfortable inventing no-code AI products and rolling up his sleeves to improve core serialization or integration test infrastructure.
