Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolZoab Kapoor is a Senior Software Engineer in Boulder with 10 years of experience building reliable, scalable service infrastructure at LinkedIn and earlier at Medallia, Yelp, and Redfin. He specializes in service-to-service communication, gateways, and SRE automation—leading projects that replaced legacy stores with MySQL-backed systems, enabled self-serve firewall workflows, and built an auto-remediation pipeline that has executed nearly 2,000 times. Zoab combines deep systems engineering with product-minded end-to-end ownership: he architects, implements, migrates data, and decommissions old systems to reduce complexity and operational toil. He has a strong track record of cross-functional impact, from designing Kafka-as-a-Service tooling to saving hundreds of person-hours via dynamic secret rotation. Known for mentoring junior engineers and shipping pragmatic solutions, he pairs a Harvey Mudd CS/math background with a curiosity for improving operational ergonomics at scale.
