About Akshay Nagpal

Technical Lead at Apple Inc

I thrive on building scalable backend architecture and distributed systems. I have led and been a critical part of teams building high throughput, low latency, operationally stable systems with attention to detail for both technical and end user aspects.

I am currently working at Apple as a tech lead on the Commerce Platform, which processes billions of dollars of financial transactions every day for all of Apple's digital storefronts and services. Prior to this role, I was working at Amazon in multiple teams. First, in the ad tech team, I built the Ad transparency and eligibility platform, ensuring that their advertisers get consistent and actionable feedback about the ad serving rules and decisions Amazon makes. Second, in the Audible membership services team, building exceptional end to end experiences for their global consumers, and last but not the least, in their data warehousing team, where I extended the open source Apache-Airflow framework for inter-graph task dependency management and visualization needed for Audible's data warehouse scheduled jobs.

I graduated from Columbia University with a masters in Computer Science with specialization in Software Systems.
