Summary
Priyanker Takkalapelli is a pragmatic full‑stack engineer with nine years of experience building cloud-native, data-intensive systems across finance, healthcare, and employee-engagement domains. He has modernized legacy .NET platforms into containerized, cost‑efficient pipelines and designed high-throughput AWS architectures that process and purge millions of records while meeting GDPR constraints. Comfortable across AWS/Azure, React/Angular frontends, and Python/Django backends, he combines API and analytics work with UX-minded components to make complex tooling self‑service for managers and operators. As a former graduate teaching assistant at the University of Utah, he also translates industry best practices into teachable artifacts—improving curricula and developer onboarding. Now at Amazon as an SDE II after a recent stint at Gallup, he brings both production-scale optimizations (40%+ cost or latency wins) and a knack for automating operational toil. An inquisitive problem solver, he often surfaces engineering efficiencies that tangibly reduce TCO while preserving business SLAs.
