I’m Kalyani Deshmukh, a backend and cloud engineer with 5+ years of experience building and operating production services and platform infrastructure end-to-end. I specialize in large-scale Python automation for build and migration tooling on Azure DevOps, with a strong focus on safe rollout, reliability, and observability—so changes land predictably across global teams. I also build resilient, idempotency-driven systems for fintech and e-commerce use cases, and design async event-driven pipelines on AWS for high-throughput workloads. Whether it’s migrating thousands of developer workspaces, cutting build times significantly, or improving search relevance with zero-downtime techniques, I’m motivated by measurable outcomes and smooth collaboration across time zones.
