Sourabh Jain is a Senior Software Engineer based in Noida with over a decade of professional experience and nine years focused on hands‑on engineering across cloud, data and backend systems. At Microsoft he designs and implements observability features for the Azure Cosmos DB .NET SDK, contributing to a well-known open-source SDK by hardening error handling and adding client telemetry support. His background spans ThoughtWorks big‑data platforms on AWS and Spark to automation and backend services at Goldman Sachs and Cognizant, reflecting strong distributed systems and data engineering chops. Comfortable in C#, .NET, Java, Node.js and cloud toolchains, he blends benchmarking and OpenTelemetry practices to improve runtime visibility and reliability. Colleagues can expect pragmatic, test-driven solutions informed by production-scale considerations and a history of improving SDK internals rather than only surface features. An underrated strength is his ability to translate low-level bug fixes into measurable telemetry and performance improvements that benefit large developer ecosystems.
