Shubham Malhotra is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of experience building data-driven systems, currently at Mphasis and previously at Next Education and Guavus. He bridges machine learning, NLP and backend engineering—having built ontologies for semantic similarity at Guavus and contributed backend enhancements to Elastic's popular Beats project, notably improving statsd and sql modules. Comfortable across analytics pipelines and production services, he has shipped features like float64 counter support, SQL-against-all-databases execution, and TLS/username support for Redis. An IIT Delhi alumnus based in Delhi, he combines strong academic foundations with practical open-source impact and a knack for turning research ideas into robust, maintainable code. A less obvious strength is his dual fluency in applied ML concepts and low-level backend robustness, enabling both model-aware engineering and reliable operational behavior.
