Mr. Saurabh Ashwinikumar Dave

Saurabh Dave is a highly accomplished software engineer with over 20 years of experience in developing enterprise-grade products in network management, cloud computing, and analytics. Currently serving as a Staff II Engineer at VMware Inc. (Broadcom Inc.) in Palo Alto, he is the architect behind VMware Agent Platform, facilitating seamless connectivity between customers’ vSphere environments and VMware Cloud. He has played a pivotal role in designing the end-to-end architecture for Desired State Configuration Management of vSphere vCenter using the VROPS platform. With deep expertise in multi-tenant microservice-based cloud services, he has managed large-scale deployments across AWS regions, leveraging technologies such as Kubernetes, Docker, and cloud platforms like AWS and Azure. His leadership and technical acumen were instrumental during his tenure at Citrix Systems Inc., where he spent nearly 17 years, serving in various key roles. As a Senior Principal Software Engineer, he led the design, development, and expansion of Citrix ADM SaaS, which served over 500 active customers and 4,000+ tenants across 11 global points of presence. He pioneered WebSocket communication protocols for enhanced full-duplex connectivity between on-premises ADCs and ADM Cloud Service and engineered multi-tenancy architecture while collaborating with SRE and senior leadership for service scaling and operations. He also led the Citrix ADM Service Connect project, significantly boosting service adoption by ten times within six months. His contributions to Citrix ADM include designing a scalable SafeHaven endpoint microservice supporting millions of probes per minute and implementing a security advisory microservice for ADM Service Connect customers. Earlier in his career, he worked on configuration management, grid computing applications, and OEM/EMS frameworks at Velankani Communication Technologies, Cybage Software, and U&I Systems Design Limited. His expertise spans programming languages such as C++, Java, and Python, along with databases like PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Cassandra. His technical interests include distributed systems, scalable architectures, APIs, and hybrid multi-cloud solutions. A prolific innovator, he holds multiple patents, including systems and methods for managing guest virtual machines and SR-IOV pass-thru via an intermediary device. His achievements include leading the design and architecture of three enterprise-grade products at Citrix, significantly contributing to revenue growth and customer adoption. He also played a crucial role in refining CI/CD processes for accelerating agent releases at VMware. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated exceptional leadership in cross-functional collaboration, agile development, and cloud-native engineering. His ability to manage service reliability indicators (SLI/SLO), cost optimization, and service usage metrics underscores his commitment to operational excellence. He holds a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Power Electronics from LE College Morbi and has consistently driven innovation in software development, cloud services, and enterprise solutions. With a track record of successfully leading high-impact projects, driving cloud adoption, and optimizing large-scale distributed systems, Saurabh continues to be a valuable asset in cloud computing and enterprise software development.
