About Surya K S

I’m a software engineer working across full-stack and cloud, focused on building and running production systems end-to-end.At Swiss Re, I work on cloud-native applications using.NET, React, and Azure, including microservices-based platforms handling 10-40 GB datasets. My work spans backend APIs, frontend, and infrastructure—covering services like Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Container Instances (ACI), and Azure App Services.I’ve set up infrastructure using Terraform (IaC), built CI/CD pipelines with Azure DevOps, and worked with containerization and deployments through Azure Container Registry (ACR). I’ve also handled system-level concerns like authentication (Azure AD/B2C), secure configuration (Key Vault), DNS/CDN via Cloudflare, and disaster recovery.Beyond.NET, I’ve worked with Java (Spring Boot) and Python in different contexts, and I’m increasingly exploring problem-solving using LLMs and retrieval-based approaches for real-world use cases.More recently, I’ve moved into the Claims product area (L&H Re), taking ownership of a suite of applications and working closer to business workflows and system reliability at scale.I’m particularly interested in solving problems that require a mix of system design, cloud infrastructure, and practical engineering—where things need to actually work, scale, and last.
