Jayesh Kulkarni

Senior Software Engineer

10 years building backend systems, distributed infrastructure, and — more recently — agentic AI tooling.

About

Backend-focused engineer with a decade of experience designing and running production systems: Go services, PostgreSQL-backed data layers, and Kubernetes/Docker deployments at scale. Over the last couple of years, that's expanded into building with AI-native tooling — MCP servers, agent orchestration, and reusable "skills" for LLM-driven workflows — bringing the same production discipline (testing, observability, graceful failure handling) to a fast-moving space that doesn't always have it by default.
