Vinay Kumar Agarwalships agent systems.
I lead platform engineering for AI and agentic systems at Plotline, where orchestration, distributed execution, and observability keep 1B+ requests a day fast and reliable. Before that I scaled Inshorts backend to 10M+ daily users and shipped GenAI platforms at Allen Digital. IIT Kanpur.
I'm an engineering leader drawn to the intersection of AI infrastructure, distributed systems, and developer productivity. I build platforms that stay fast and reliable at massive scale.
Across 7 years I've built event-driven architectures, real-time systems, and AI workflows. The throughline runs from scaling backend at Inshorts to shipping GenAI platforms, and now to leading platform engineering for agentic systems at Plotline.
Agent systems
Multi-agent pipelines with feedback loops and iterative refinement. Automation that compounds instead of one-off scripts.
Platform architecture
Systems that scale across traffic and team, built for failure modes, observability, and long-term cost.
Engineering leadership
High-agency, low-process teams with clear ownership, trust-based delegation, and a high bar for decision quality.
Lead platform engineering for AI and agentic systems serving 0B+ requests/day across orchestration, distributed execution, observability, and reliability.
Led a GenAI-powered doubts platform and an 0-engineer team, scaling real-time academic support nationally across web and app.
Built an activity-based networking app to 0+ users with real-time chat, notifications, and GCP infra.
Scaled a hyperlocal video news platform to 0M+ DAU / 0M+ MAU; cut cloud costs 0% (~$1M+/yr) across 30+ GKE services.
Built Java supply and inventory planning systems, optimizing production SQL for 0% faster load times.
