Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolShristy Agarwal is a seasoned software engineer with 9 years of experience building secure, reliable distributed systems and lifecycle management tooling, currently scaling NDB at Nutanix from Mountain View. She has a strong security focus—designing certificate and CA management, secure build pipelines, and Xi-Secret-Store integrations—that has directly reinforced customer trust and enabled contract renewals. Her work spans product ownership and deep engineering, from coordinating dependency-aware firmware and OS upgrades to implementing idempotent workflows and fault-injected integration tests that improved QA and reduced production incidents. At Yugabyte she was the sole contributor for external CA management and improved accessibility by removing heavy reverse-proxy requirements, demonstrating a knack for pragmatic, user-centered optimizations. A Cornell M.Eng. in Computer Science, she combines systems-level rigor with a track record of shipping features that cut support load and harden platform security.
