Hey, I’m Shaon

I’ve spent over a decade building distributed systems. Search at Smartsheet, Azure Key Vault at Microsoft, and two of the big container registries: AWS ECR and now Red Hat Quay, where I build software with AI agents across the entire development cycle.

I’m always happy to talk about AI/ML infrastructure, platform engineering, and the cool things you’re building:

Work

• Red Hat: Software Engineer on Quay, the open-source container registry.
• Amazon: Software Development Engineer on Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR).
• Microsoft: Software Engineer on Azure Key Vault.
• Smartsheet: Software Development Engineer on search.
• Hewlett Packard Enterprise: Software Engineer on Eucalyptus, the open-source AWS-compatible private cloud.

Writing

• Designing for failure

• Idempotency keys, briefly

  [Placeholder] Making “at least once” safe to live with.

• One patient mile at a time

  [Placeholder] What distance running taught me about shipping software.
