@savithasunil
Senior solution architect and cloud platform engineer delivering high-availability systems and enterprise tech transformation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Solution Architect and cloud platform engineering leader with 12+ years of experience turning customer needs and business objectives into scalable technology platforms and product capabilities. I’ve designed high-availability distributed systems serving 1M+ users, and I lead cross-functional engineering teams from concept and strategy through architecture, development, and production deployment. Currently, I’m strengthening my capabilities across strategy, product management, and market-driven innovation through executive management education at IIM Bangalore and AWS certification.
In my current role, I lead architecture design for a cloud-native enterprise monitoring platform that delivers real-time visibility into POS transaction health across large retail ecosystems. I translate business and operational requirements into scalable platform capabilities, evaluate APM and observability tools, and define target architectures optimized for reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency—while also exploring AI-driven analytics to detect anomalies and predict operational issues from monitoring data and telemetry. Previously, as a Lead Engineer/Architect, I built REST-based platform services for mission-critical edge computing workloads, delivered fault-tolerant and resiliency-focused features, led Agile delivery across architecture-to-release cycles, and earned three Best Performer Awards at Stratus Technologies for technical leadership and delivery impact.
