About Vikash Garg

Principal Engineer at AWS driving large-scale AI/ML and GenAI platform initiatives — from foundational infrastructure to customer-facing products. I specialize in building systems that operate at massive scale: petabyte-scale data pipelines, real-time billing and metering platforms, and developer experiences that make AI accessible to everyone.Currently leading platform architecture for AWS Bedrock, where I\'ve shaped the commerce foundation powering LLM billing (including all Anthropic contracts), re-architected customer metering, and built a data lake processing millions of telemetry events per second. Previously led SageMaker\'s low-code/no-code portfolio, bringing GenAI capabilities to customers who\'ve never written a line of code.I care deeply about making complex technology simple, building systems that are durable at scale, and partnering across engineering, science, product, and UX to deliver real customer impact.
