Summary
Sushant Dewan is an engineering leader with around a decade of hands-on experience building high-scale backend systems and platforms, currently leading the Home Feed Foundations team for UberEats in the Bay Area. He has driven observability, config-management, and performance-diagnostics platforms at Snowflake and scaled log analytics to 100+ GB/sec at Meta, consistently turning instrumentation into actionable incident-reduction tools. Prior to that he led Unified Observability at VMware/Tanzu, taking distributed tracing from whiteboard to GA and launching a hyperscale no-index log store and application-mapping features used in production. Deeply pragmatic in Java/Scala and polyglot backend stacks, he pairs a strong concurrency and systems-design background with data-store expertise spanning SQL, NoSQL, time-series and graph databases. Known for mentoring engineers and building “observability-first” cultures, he also dogfoods the platforms he ships and emphasizes measurable SLOs and on-call readiness. Notably, his career blends large-enterprise distributed-systems work with a continual self-study habit—he’s completed focused courses in Scala FP, NoSQL, JVM tuning and networking to stay sharp.
