Meet the hiring manager
Hello, this is Prathyush! I joined Nutanix 8 years ago and worked in several teams and roles during this time. I have been leading and managing the AHV Control Plane team for the last 2+ years. Before that I was a tech lead in the same team for 3 years. Over the course of the last five years, I got the opportunity to overhaul our API story as well as re-architect some of the critical backend components to aid in building the next generation Control Plane for AHV Virtual Machine management. With the release of our latest APIs, we are inching closer to our vision.
