Saurabh Yergattikar is a software architect and engineering leader with 15 years building mission-critical systems at global scale, working at the intersection of financial services, platform engineering, and agentic AI infrastructure.
He currently leads seller financing platform engineering at eBay across the US, UK, and Germany, and previously served as technical owner of core billing and real-time fee-netting systems, building distributed financial infrastructure that handles money movement at marketplace scale.
Much of his work also centers on making AI agents safe, reliable, and production-ready.
He contributed to SAFE-MCP, a Linux Foundation and OpenSSF security project cataloguing 80+ attack vectors against the Model Context Protocol, and architects ShieldMCP, an open source runtime defense proxy for agent stacks.
He also builds GyroCompass-io, an architecture governance framework that keeps AI coding agents aligned with a system's intended design.
His research on AI agent security and infrastructure has been accepted at the ACL 2026 Industry Track and IEEE conferences.
Saurabh is a Senior Member of the IEEE and serves as a program committee member, reviewer, and judge across IEEE, ACM, and ICML venues.
He has spoken at SXSW, the MCP Conference, NEARCON, the Linux Foundation Member Summit, and Workato Summit,
with work featured in Inverse and The San Francisco Standard.
He speaks on agentic infrastructure, secure AI systems, distributed systems and platform engineering at scale, developer productivity, and the realities of running autonomous agents in regulated, high-stakes environments.
