Arvind Bright

I'm a software engineer at Google who loves to build things that work at scale. I've spent the last two years on the gRPC team, geeking out on Service Mesh and finding new ways to make microservices communication smoother.

I've been building cloud products and infrastructure for most of my career, and I'm always up for a good challenge. Before Google, I was part of the AWS Lambda crew at Amazon, so I've got a pretty good handle on all things cloud.

When I'm not coding, you can find me catching up on the latest anime or podcast. I've also recently discovered a passion for music production, proving that even programmers can have a creative streak. I like to think of FL Studio as just another form of programming—a bit more melodic, perhaps.
