Summary
Shyamkarthik Rameshbabu is a Software Engineer II at Amazon Rufus with 8 years of experience building production-grade systems that sit at the intersection of LLMs, agent orchestration, and large-scale distributed infrastructure. He has been a founding backend engineer for agentic AI orchestration at Rufus, architecting streaming inference, multi-prompt bi-directional gRPC flows, and a Context Engineering control plane that cut LLM costs while improving quality. His work spans the full ML and systems stack—from model-informed context construction and compiled expression caching to CPU-level profiling that boosted throughput ~8x in production—and he led GameDay testing for peak events validating systems at 48K+ TPS. Prior roles include driving recommendation and personalization models, data pipelines, and product experiments at JioSaavn and Alexa Shopping, where he recovered underreported metrics and scaled MAU by millions. Based in San Francisco, he pairs rigorous first-principles engineering with cross-team alignment and a knack for turning ambiguous research ideas into reliable global services. Outside of work he channels creativity into volleyball, Bollywood dance, and small AI tools that automate and enhance everyday hobbies.
