About Ashish Sinha

With 14 years of experience in software engineering, I have a strong background in designing, developing, and deploying cloud-native solutions, distributed systems, and storage technologies. My expertise spans across object/block storage, Kubernetes, Helm, Docker, and cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. Proficient in multiple programming languages, including Rust, Go, Java, and Haskell, I thrive on solving complex problems and delivering scalable, reliable systems.Currently, I am a Staff Software Engineer at DataCore Software/OpenEBS, where I lead a team of six engineers. My notable contributions include designing and developing features like storage tiering, snapshots, and clone functionality for Mayastor, as well as implementing a call-home feature that reduced debugging time by 20%. I have also driven the development of a hot upgrade mechanism, ensuring 0% system downtime. My role involves actively participating in key design decisions, conducting code reviews, and resolving customer issues, which has led to a 20% increase in adoption.Previously at MinIO, I led a team of four engineers, integrating object storage with Prometheus and Grafana for alerting and monitoring, resulting in significant cost savings for clients. I also spearheaded the launch of SUBNET, a subscription-based chat system that generated over $1 million in revenue.In addition to my technical expertise, I hold a CKA certification from CNCF and have a proven track record of working with open-source communities and customers. I am passionate about cloud technologies, system design, and driving innovation through collaboration and leadership.
