Ashok Prakash is a technical architect who designs, builds, and operates high-performance cloud platforms for GPU-accelerated AI/ML and HPC workloads. His work centers on turning complex, multi-tenant infrastructure into predictable, self-service platforms that engineering teams can adopt without friction. Currently he works at Apple leading Responsible AI initiatives and previously at Oracle Cloud (Senior Principal Engineer, 2020–2026), Ashok led platform engineering efforts to deliver a Kubernetes-based GPU platform that abstracts bare-metal clusters behind self-service APIs. The result: product teams can bring up AI workloads in minutes instead of days, with consistent provisioning, quota controls, and cost visibility. He has built and evolved multi-tenant schedulers for GPU/CPU pools, automated cluster lifecycle, and developer tooling that bakes in “good defaults” for observability, CI/CD, and runtime security.

His area of expertise extends beyond infrastructure plumbing into the day-to-day productivity of engineering organizations. He partners with data and platform teams on reproducible pipelines, tracing/metrics that actually get used, and incident practices that prefer prevention over heroics. In reviews and mentoring, he emphasizes steady delivery over theatrics and favors measurable, team-owned improvements, things like time-to-first-draft for docs and tests, human approval rates for AI-assisted changes, and SLOs that reflect real user experience.

Ashok speaks regularly at engineering and data conferences, including Airflow Summit, where he shares vendor-neutral patterns for using AI safely in everyday engineering work. Typical topics include turning code comments into first-draft documentation, generating unit-test scaffolds, suggesting refactors with human review, writing clearer triage notes, and deciding what remains human-only (novel architecture, policy exceptions, high-impact incident calls).

He holds three published U.S. patent applications (pending issuance) and international publications in AI/NLP, with citations from both academic and industry readers. His writing and talks frequently return to a few core ideas: pave the path so the right thing is the easy thing; keep sensitive data out of public tools; measure outcomes users can feel; and favor small, repeatable wins over sweeping rewrites.

Ashok is based in Seattle. Outside of day job responsibilities, he contributes practical guidance on AI-at-work for non-specialists, helping teams adopt simple prompt patterns, basic data-hygiene rules, and review gates that keep judgment with humans. He is the author of Human Reimagined: Thriving in the Age of AI, a non-technical guide for professionals who want to make AI a helpful assistant rather than a source of anxiety.
