Srimanta Barua is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building high-performance, distributed systems and low-level analysis tooling, currently shaping a globally distributed OLTP database at Amazon. He blends systems research and production engineering—having automated symbolic malware analysis as a Georgia Tech research assistant and optimized datacenter power/performance and JIT convolution pipelines at Intel. An early open-source contributor to radare2 via Google Summer of Code, he implemented a multi-architecture GDB remote debugger that still impacts cross-architecture reverse engineering workflows. Comfortable across kernel-adjacent networking, firmware/BMC tooling, and database internals, he brings a rare combination of research depth and hands-on systems craftsmanship. Based in San Jose, he pairs strong C/C++ and systems expertise with practical experience delivering large-scale cloud services.
