Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSwetha Repakula is a software engineer with 10 years of experience building and hardening cloud-native infrastructure, currently focusing on GKE networking at Google in Sunnyvale. She has a strong back-end and DevOps pedigree, contributing to high-profile open-source projects like Kubernetes and Cloud Foundry where she worked on controllers, ingress/NEG CRDs, router logic, and service lifecycle operations. Her work spans production engineering and test automation—improving acceptance tests and adding resilient end-to-end coverage to reduce flakiness and validate complex networking scenarios. At IBM she bridged open-source communities including Hyperledger and Cloud Foundry, and she served on Hyperledger’s Technical Steering Committee, reflecting both technical depth and governance experience. Swetha pairs an EECS foundation from UC Berkeley with an MBA from Haas, a combination that helps her translate technical tradeoffs into product and operational decisions. A behind-the-scenes strength is her knack for reducing system fragility—whether through feature flags, improved logging, or tighter test suites—making large distributed systems more reliable.
