Shobhit Shekhar is a Staff Software Engineer based in Bengaluru with nine years of experience building cloud-native, Kubernetes-first platforms and developer tooling. He has driven large migrations and zero-downtime cutovers at scale—most recently leading multiple control-plane rearchitectures at Cohesity and previously architecting kube-native Qubole control and data planes across AWS, Azure and GCP. Skilled in Go and distributed systems, he’s delivered cost- and reliability-focused replacements (e.g., a Golang API gateway with ~80% cost reduction) and built operators for Jupyter and Presto to enable portable, private-cloud ML and analytics. Colleagues know him for improving developer velocity (10x via disposable dev environments) and for making operational plumbing fault-tolerant so customer jobs survive partial outages. He combines hands-on implementation with platform-minded architecture, favoring pragmatic automation and reproducible deployments.
