Yogiraj Aradhye is a Senior Manager at Accenture and a builder with two decades of experience in software engineering, distributed systems architecture, and engineering leadership. He has led teams and shipped production systems across healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and energy, from Fortune 500 enterprise platforms to cloud-native architectures on AWS and Azure. He works closely with Anthropic to deploy their solutions for enterprise customers. He is the creator of AWAF, the Agent Well-Architected Framework: an open specification for evaluating AI agent architecture across 10 pillars with CI-native tooling. He built awaf-cli, the reference implementation, in Python. AWAF is the product of applying the same production-readiness thinking he has used across two decades of systems work to the specific failure modes of agentic AI. Beyond conference stages, Yogi has delivered technical workshops to audiences of 100+ engineers and architects at enterprise clients across multiple industries. He has spoken at regional developer conferences and code camps across the US, and his 2020 NDC Oslo talk “Refactoring the Architect’s Role” is available on YouTube. Yogi thinks in operationalization. He builds with AI agents and Python. He writes about distributed systems, agentic architecture, and engineering discipline at aradhye.com.
