# Ankur Tyagi on Tal

## Headline

Engineering Head @ Prosperr\.io \| ex\-Microsoft Azure, ex\-Amazon AWS \| Product, Platform & Distributed systems \| IIIT Allahabad

## About

I'm an engineering leader with 10 years across distributed systems and platform engineering\. My expertise is in high\-scale backend services, and in the platform work that lets product teams ship independently\. I've worked at both ends of the range: hyperscale infrastructure at AWS and Microsoft, and startup engineering leadership with high product and business ambiguity\. At Amazon I worked on AWS DynamoDB, Amazon Payments and Seller Platform\. At Microsoft Azure, Cloud Competition Intelligence system and a synthetic environment platform for pre\-production testing at cloud scale\. At Prosperr, I joined as architect on their first B2B product and ended up running engineering org\. Currently looking for my next role — reach out to ankurtyaagi@gmail\.com
