Sayan Das is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years’ experience specializing in low-latency, large-scale search systems and production-grade indexing pipelines. Based in Berlin and currently improving quick-commerce search at Delivery Hero, he has a strong track record optimizing Apache Solr deployments for cost, latency and horizontal scalability. He designed multi-sharded indexing and zero-downtime migration strategies, led CPU-architecture migration benchmarking that delivered ~30% single-core gains, and tuned JVM/GC to dramatically reduce compute overhead. Comfortable across backend stacks (Lucene, Spring Boot) and large ecommerce search platforms, he blends hands-on performance engineering with pragmatic operational planning. Notably, his career shows a consistent pattern of re-architecting search infrastructure to support 10x growth while keeping query latencies in the millisecond range.
