Summary
Sumit Kumar is a DevOps and Platform engineer with 12+ years building scalable, observable production systems across large tech companies including Walmart Global Tech, Meta, and Intuit. He blends deep hands-on experience in CI/CD, release automation, and load testing (Jenkins, JMeter, Python) with backend service design in Java, PHP, and Go, and has driven modernizations that shortened release SLAs for hundreds of realtime pipelines. At Intuit he designed services and testing frameworks that uncovered critical bugs in Amazon Connect and saved substantial cloud costs, and at Meta he co-designed release automation supporting dozens of realtime ML pipelines. Comfortable across cloud-native stacks (AWS, ECS, Kubernetes, DynamoDB) and low-level system work (C/C++ on Unix), he’s known for turning experimentation—HHVM, Phalcon, AppDynamics—into production-ready improvements. Based in San Ramon, CA, he pairs a master’s in CS with a pragmatic streak for automating tedious workflows and hardening legacy systems.
