About Anmol Sundaram

Ever wondered what makes large-scale data systems truly reliable?I design and optimize distributed systems that don’t just scale but perform consistently under real-world pressure. My work revolves around solving complex data challenges where correctness, failure handling, and performance are tightly intertwined. I enjoy getting into the depths of production systems, understanding how they behave at scale, and building solutions that are both efficient and resilient. Driving System ReliabilityCurrently, as a Software Development Engineer II at Uber, I focus on enhancing Apache Flink to improve reliability and efficiency in real-time data processing. I work on strengthening system stability, optimizing execution, and ensuring that large-scale streaming workloads operate seamlessly across distributed environments. Scaling Data PlatformsOver the years, I’ve built deep expertise working at Amazon Web Services, contributing to the EMR dataplane across Hive, Tez, and Oozie. My work has involved optimizing S3-backed workloads, improving query performance, enabling secure distributed execution, and debugging production systems for global customers operating at massive scale. Key Highlights & Core Expertise Distributed Systems: Designing fault-tolerant, high-scale architectures Big Data Processing: Optimizing Hive, Tez, Flink workloads Cloud Infrastructure: Building on AWS EMR ecosystems Performance Engineering: Driving latency and throughput improvements Data Streaming: Real-time processing with Flink systems System Reliability: Strengthening correctness and failure handling Professional Milestones Improved Hive write performance by up to 3× Reduced query latency through async execution enhancements Enabled end-to-end TLS across distributed query systems Contributed to open-source ecosystem improvements Mentored interns into full-time engineering roles Resolved production issues across global systems Awards & Achievements SCOS Superstar Award, AWS Supply Chain Quality Champion Award, AWS Winner, FIESTA DE CODIGO & Codervation Top ranks, CodeGolf & ALGOSENSE Qualified TCS CodeVita Round 1 Let\'s Connect & Collaborate!I’m always open to conversations around distributed systems, real-time data, and building resilient platforms, feel free to connect.
