Summary
Sohil Gogri is a Staff Software Engineer and tech lead based in Mumbai with 12 years of engineering experience and seven years in leadership roles, currently driving data and infrastructure efforts at GoGuardian. He specializes in cloud-native data platforms and cost-optimized AWS architectures—designing pipelines across Redshift, RDS, Spark/Scala, and streaming systems like MSK and Kinesis, and operationalizing time-series storage with SingleStore. Sohil blends hands-on systems work in Python, Go and Terraform with pragmatic data engineering practices (Matillion, ETL, SQL) to turn disparate sources into reliable analytics and ML-ready streams. He has a strong academic foundation from USC (MS Data Informatics) and VJTI, and an uncommon early-career background in traffic-simulation research and embedded UI work that shaped his systems-thinking approach. Colleagues rely on him to balance scalability, cost governance (RI/Savings plan strategy), and production reliability across fast-moving data domains.
