Principal Engineer at Walmart Global Tech
With 22 years of experience as a Principal Engineer at Walmart Global Tech, I'm eager to offer mentorship to engineers looking to advance their careers. I specialize in architecting and developing high-performance, scalable backend systems, including cutting-edge AR/VR platforms, leveraging extensive expertise in Java, Node.js, Python, AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, GraphQL, Kafka, and robust CI/CD practices. Having led significant initiatives and mentored talent throughout my career at companies like JPMorgan Chase & Co. and FICO, I'm passionate about sharing insights on large-scale microservices, cloud-native development, distributed systems, and navigating career growth in enterprise environments. If you're a student, an aspiring developer, or a seasoned engineer seeking guidance in these areas, please feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn and send a direct message outlining your interests. Let's work together to accelerate your professional journey!
“I had requested a session with Karthic for feedback on my resume but he actually used the time to give fantastic advice on what it really means to be a Senior Engineer and Leader. I've been in the industry for about 20 years so I have my notions and biases but Karthic made me really think about each of them and laid out a great roadmap for what I should do from here. All in 30 mins. Great stuff!”
