> Amit Prasad_
Systems Engineer, Software Architect, and ex-Founder focused on distributed systems, high performance applications, novel financial technologies, and a bunch of random stuff in-between (and not!).
Currently wrapping up a Masters at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, before joining the Modal systems team, building an (awesome) GPU-enabled cloud platform. Many of my projects are open-source, check out my GitHub profile. Previously, I worked at Entropic Labs (Founder), Kujira, Terraform Labs, and Bloomberg.
I'm always happy to chat about anything related to distributed systems, cloud computing, FinTech, or any other stimulating space. Feel free to reach out.
