Got promoted for playing an influential role in the team to evolve the Aria app observability platform with hands-on tech leadership initiatives with appropriate product/ technical trade offs) across engineering leadership, product management, senior engineers and GM of the group. Responsibilities:* Provide design guidance and insights to the various Tech leads or engineers. Mentor engineers in earlier career to grow and sponsor/ give feedback for growth as part of BU level mentorship program and day to day leading.* Align/influence senior leadership on how our medium term technology strategy aligns with the overall business strategy* Have a viewpoint on new technologies and new technical capabilities released by our competitors and competitor landscape. Educate Sr leadership.* Develop a tech and architecture strategy for the medium term (achievable within 1 year) that addresses high growth customers /top priority architectural challenges specifically with large 5 customers who run into biggest scale/Infra cost challenges.Delivery/R&D* Set vision , lead technical POC efforts to provide the viability of various high level technical solutions/tech stack choices. * Drove initiative to move query and ingestion services to be stateless. Redesigned indexing layer(from POC to team of 4 dev engineers/QA) from in memory cache to external distributed caching(AWS elastic redis) leading to memory savings > 50% of query services. This involved optimizing several areas of query planning to avoid increased 95/max latency. 1 Patent filed in this area. Ingestion- Moved index updates to direct distributed cache updates. Cardinality related challenges measurement & limits.https://blogs.vmware.com/management/2023/05/debug-p95-latency-with-distributed-tracing.html* Tech leadership/strategy/vision * Influence on product direction * POCs * Architect for large scale time series ingestion/query technical challenges *Mentorship
