Akshit Singh

I’m a Full Stack Software Engineer (SE3) with 3+ years contributing to LinkedIn—one of the world’s largest single-page applications serving 1B+ users. I take end-to-end ownership across Live Events, Feed, Campaign Manager, and Media surfaces.

I drove a 20%+ improvement in live-video prefetch hit ratio through CMCD optimization, helping enable measurable CDN cost savings at platform scale. I also built and improved features around live stream constraints, where future segments don’t exist.

I’ve led multi-month migrations for LinkedIn Events creation/edit flows from deprecated frameworks and languages onto the modern internal stack—maintaining production stability while coordinating across frontend, backend, and product. I’ve also developed new internal notification surfaces, implemented telemetry for video player controls, and resolved long-standing production defects on the Events surface.

Trusted on hiring panels (30+ technical interviews conducted), I mentor 3–4 junior engineers and consistently support others as a point-of-contact. I practice disciplined, test-driven development—authoring unit and integration tests for every shipped change to keep the codebase regression-resistant.
