Sumedh Degaonkar is a production engineering manager with a decade-plus background in systems and software engineering focused on storage, file systems, networking, data protection and virtualization. He currently leads production engineering at Shopify after managing reliability and recoverability efforts at Meta’s archival storage and a long tenure building data protection solutions at Commvault. Sumedh combines hands-on kernel- and storage-level engineering experience with people leadership, mentoring cross-functional teams to deliver complex cloud and on-premise backup/recovery products. He has deep practical expertise in DR readiness, service recoverability, capacity planning and developer efficiency tooling that reduces risk at scale. Comfortable in both product roadmap partnerships and low-level implementation, he brings an engineer-first management style informed by prior roles in networking and telecom stacks. Based in the United States and educated at COEP Pune, he’s as likely to review a bootloader integration as he is to coach an engineering team through incident retrospectives.
