Anirudh MV
Technical Lead | Backend & AI Platform Engineer | Distributed Systems
Backend/platform engineer building production systems for AI products: conversational agents, data-ingestion pipelines, cloud services, and reliability tooling. I like working close to the messy parts of real systems — orchestration, databases, production debugging, cost/performance tradeoffs, and developer workflows — and turning them into boring, reliable infrastructure. Currently exploring production-grade deployment of Frigate NVR and inner workings of Agentic AI coding tools (OpenCode). Professional prompt writing and tab presser. Self proclaimed electronics enthusiast.
