WORK HISTORY
Software Engineer @Hewlett Packard Enterprise
Chicago, IL, US
Designed and delivered full-stack automation tools (Python, Flask, JavaScript, MariaDB, Docker) used across engineering and customer-facing teams, streamlining 60+ hardware workflows and saving 4+ hours of manual effort per day. Built backend infrastructure validation and configuration services (FastAPI, Docker, SQL) that acted as pre-deployment “gates,” reducing environment-related test failures by 25% and improving release reliability. Engineered distributed monitoring probes and diagnostic workflows (Python) for OOM, GC, and anomaly detection, reducing crashes by 15% and strengthening observability for high-scale clustered systems. Designed scalable CI/CD pipelines (Pytest, Jenkins, GitHub) that increased automated test coverage by 40%(ESX) and improved delivery consistency across multi-service deployments. Contributed to distributed system architecture by deploying Kubernetes tunnel hosts and participating in Kafka integration, improving cross-service connectivity and deployment stability by 18%. Built GenAI-driven troubleshooting and release-planning tools (Python, FastAPI, LLMs, embeddings, Jira API) that automated log analysis and root-cause discovery, cutting triage time by 50%. Delivered technical demos, architecture walkthroughs, and solution presentations for engineering, product leadership, and customer teams—driving adoption, clarifying system design, and supporting partner enablement. Acted as a technical partner to customers and internal stakeholders by leading discovery sessions, mapping workflows to scalable architectures, guiding integrations, and resolving complex real-world production issues. Mentored interns and new hires through onboarding, code reviews, architectural deep-dives, and hands-on coaching, reducing ramp-up time and strengthening team delivery across engineering and solutions functions.

ABOUT TATHEER ZAHRA
Highly technical Solutions Architect with 3+ years of experience building and scaling distributed systems, backend services, and automation platforms. I design end-to-end architectures that translate complex, ambiguous requirements into reliable, production-ready systems aligned with business objectives.Previously, I spent 3 years at Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) as a Systems Software Developer, where I built cloud-native automation and internal platforms that reduced triage time by 50%, improved service uptime by 15%, and increased platform adoption by 25%. My work spanned backend engineering, CI/CD pipelines, API integrations, and large-scale system design.In addition to hands-on engineering expertise, I bring strong client-facing and pre-sales experience — leading deep technical discovery, architecting solutions in partnership with engineering teams, presenting to executive stakeholders, and guiding customers from design through implementation. I’m comfortable whiteboarding architectures one moment and discussing business impact the next.My background includes Python, Java, JavaScript, SQL, REST APIs, microservices, Kubernetes, AWS, GCP, data platforms (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift), and AI-driven automation. I thrive at the intersection of technical depth, systems thinking, and strategic problem-solving.Outside of work, I’m an aspiring pilot working toward my PPL.My website: https://tatheerzahara.github.io/tatheer.github.io/
