### About you

[https://bold.pro/my/prasad-vittaldev-240320102206]([https://bold.pro/my/prasad-vittaldev-240320102206])

With 19 years shaping the software landscape, I bring a holistic perspective to architecture and development. My journey includes leading startups and currently serving as a Senior Software Architect & Developer (R&D) at Ivrnet, Harris Computer Systems.

My focus lies in building robust, high-performance systems using Python, C++, Rust, and Go. This includes specialized experience in communication technologies like VoIP, exploring AI in Voice, and engineering Low Latency Applications often found in modern SaaS and CCaaS platforms. I leverage a broad technical foundation, mastering diverse database paradigms and asynchronous processing techniques for optimization.

Beyond development, I'm deeply experienced in modern deployment practices using containerization and orchestration principles. As a passionate advocate for Cloud Alternatives and efficient Bare-Metal infrastructure, I have hands-on experience across both major cloud providers and custom environments. This is driven by a strong Linux & DevOps mindset, emphasizing end-to-end system ownership and finding the right, often non-cloud, tool for the job.
