Saurabh Bora is a pragmatic software engineer with 8 years of experience building scalable backend systems and data-driven matchmaking platforms, currently at Avalara after leading matchmaking engineering at Urban Company. He bridges product and engineering by turning complex business constraints into performant microservices, having migrated large monoliths, redesigned workflows, and shipped features that materially improved partner engagement and fill rates. Comfortable across JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Python, Kafka, Elasticsearch and MySQL/MongoDB, he combines system-design rigor with hands-on implementation and a habit of deep learning. Notably, he built telemetry and batching solutions that generated actionable partner feedback and supported an instant bookings pilot for a new market. Based in Pune, he also blogs and experiments with ML and data tooling, reflecting a curiosity that extends beyond core backend engineering.
