Dhanunjaya Naidu Yandrapu

I’m a Principal Software Engineer with 15+ years of experience designing and building scalable, high-performance systems. I specialize in cloud-native architectures, microservices, and distributed systems, with hands-on expertise across platforms like Kubernetes, Kafka, and modern backend technologies.

Currently, I work as a consultant at Axiom, where I lead complex system transformations, including scaling platforms to handle tens of thousands of concurrent users. Previously, I co-founded a SaaS product in the business automation space and spent several years at Microsoft contributing to Azure Site Recovery and Windows Server.
