Tamar Zilbar is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years' experience designing and operating high-throughput, low-latency microservices that handle billions of requests and millions of RPS in real-time ad monetization systems. At Unity she architects multi-threaded Scala/Java services backed by Kafka and Aerospike, and has driven cost and performance optimizations across Kubernetes deployments on AWS and GCP. Previously she led teams building user-acquisition platforms and high-scale APIs using Node.js, TypeScript, MySQL/SingleStore and cloud services, balancing hands-on development with people and project leadership. Her background in life sciences (M.Sc.) gives her a lab-trained, investigative approach to debugging and learning new technologies—an analytical habit she applies to production systems. Comfortable across languages and stacks, she combines deep systems thinking with pragmatic delivery in multi-team environments.
