Aditya is a Founding Engineer at Cortex, the Developer Portal for engineering teams to catalog their services and resources and build a culture of reliability through adoption of best practices, funded by Sequoia Capital and YCombinator.
Aditya started off his career in software engineering at Poynt, where he helped scale the team from 15 engineers to 60+. He was responsible for building and maintaining a large part of the infrastructure there, that spanned across the entire company. He also saw the company go through the classic monolith to microservices journey. He then moved to a very early-stage startup (Curebase), where he worked directly with the founders to build the engineering organization from the ground up.
