Software engineer

Amogh Umesh.
Systems & networks.

Software Engineer II at RingCentral. My work covers distributed telephony systems, network infrastructure, eBPF, IPv6, and production tooling.

01 / About

Background.

I work on systems software, networking, and production infrastructure.

At RingCentral, I develop distributed telephony systems handling more than a million calls a day. Previously, I operated university infrastructure at NITK, worked on eBPF networking features at Keploy, and shipped image tooling for Kindle Create at Amazon.

I graduated from NITK Surathkal with a B.Tech in Computer Science. Outside work, I maintain a WireGuard-connected homelab with several self-hosted services.
