Dhyey Bhansali
Senior Software Engineer @ Anyscale
I am a software engineer with 6+ years building distributed, cloud-native data platforms. I'm currently at Anyscale, building sandboxed AI coding agents that scope tickets, gather context, and open PRs autonomously. Before that, six years at Akridata designing multi-tenant API gateways and high-throughput data pipelines, and eliminating production memory failures on TB-scale ML workloads. Beyond the screen, I am a competitive chess player, division-level cricketer, and a massive travel and adventure enthusiast.
Engineering
Backend & AI Systems
At Anyscale I build sandboxed AI coding agents that turn a single Slack message into a scoped ticket, gather context, implement the changes, and open a PR. Previously at Akridata I owned a centralized API Gateway handling 850K+ requests/day, pioneered FastAPI across 15+ microservices, and shipped an image-clustering service processing 500K+ images for Singapore's National Library Board.
