Summary
Viral Kamdar is a cloud-native architect and polyglot developer with over two decades of industry experience and a decade of focused cloud/SRE leadership. Currently a Lead Member of Technical Staff at Salesforce, he has a track record of designing and operating large-scale observability platforms—most notably co-founding and architecting Oracle’s “Sauron” service, a Kubernetes-operator-driven, multi-tenant observability stack that supported hundreds of isolated instances across dozens of teams. He blends deep systems engineering (Kubernetes, Prometheus, Elasticsearch, Istio) with software craftsmanship in Go and platform automation, and has led end-to-end product lifecycles from design through CI/CD and operations. Viral moves comfortably between hands-on implementation and technical leadership, thriving in roles that require both building resilient infrastructure and mentoring teams. Based in Bengaluru, he pairs enterprise-scale experience from Oracle, Acquia, ANZ, and Salesforce with a practical, security-minded DevSecOps approach. An early innovator in service mesh and operator-based automation, he favors pragmatic, reusable solutions that scale across teams.
