Surendran Mahendran is a Senior Staff Engineer with 15 years of experience building platform infrastructure, developer tooling and production-grade services across startups and large tech companies. He has led cross-organizational engineering efforts at Uber and Stripe and previously helped scale data and compute platforms at Qubole, bringing a pragmatic balance of technical depth and business constraints to complex problems. Comfortable wearing many hats—from founder at a YC-backed startup to devops and IC roles—he excels at taking products from scratch through high-growth phases. Known for evolving processes and strategy as much as code, he focuses on repeatable systems, operability and rapid iteration. Based in Bengaluru, he pairs systems-level thinking from his EEE background with hands-on implementation across cloud, data and infra stacks.
