Hey! I’m Div, an infra engineer in the New York metro area. I build & operate the systems behind large internet services, with a focus on distributed infrastructure, internet traffic, and keeping services reliable and secure.
Work & Interest
My career began in Site Reliability Engineering, building observability platforms and helping engineers better understand distributed systems.
From there my focus shifted toward designing and operating large-scale infrastructure across Kubernetes, Amazon ECS, and Nomad, with an emphasis on resiliency, automation, and availability.
Today much of my work revolves around internet traffic itself: understanding how it moves across the web, identifying patterns, and protecting large-scale services from malicious bots, automated abuse, DDoS attacks, large-scale scraping, and increasingly AI-driven traffic.
That means analyzing traffic at scale, building detection systems, and figuring out how to separate legitimate users from everything trying to imitate them.
