Shantanu Kumar is an engineering leader with 11 years of experience building and scaling cloud-native systems and real-time platforms from San Francisco. Currently an Agent Engineering Manager at Sierra, he moved up rapidly from individual contributor to manager roles and previously led Productiv’s tech teams to deliver real-time contract extraction, multi-app integrations, and a free-tier self-serve product. His background spans high-throughput ad tech and data infrastructure work—designing Kafka/Storm pipelines, distributed cache loaders, and moving monoliths to microservices with secure S2S auth. He combines hands-on engineering with operational rigor, having driven SOC2 readiness, multi-region disaster recovery, and integrations with 50+ apps. An IIT Delhi alum, he’s comfortable translating complex product requirements into reliable, automated systems that cut manual processes down to real time.
