Hi, I’m Sudeep!

About

I’m a Staff Site Reliability and Platform Engineer with ~12 years of experience building and scaling cloud-native infrastructure and internal platforms. My work spans data engineering, distributed systems, and reliability engineering - currently focused on improving developer experience and operational resilience in large distributed environments.

Along the way, I’ve worked across the full Data Stack - from Data Analytics and ML-driven insights, through ETL, to building the Data Platforms that power them. Today, I bring that breadth to my role as a Staff Engineer at Hotstar.

What I Focus On

• Platform Engineering & Developer Platforms — building Internal Developer Platforms that improve engineering velocity, standardization, and operational efficiency
• Reliability & Distributed Systems — designing resilient systems, incident response, observability, and performance at scale
• Cloud Infrastructure & Data Platforms — Kubernetes, IaC, and Data/ML infrastructure powering high-throughput systems

Outside of Work

I enjoy playing chess, writing with fountain pens, and reading (mostly fiction and epic fantasy). I also like long walks and dabbling in phone photography.
