About

Hello! I’m Krishnan Chandra, a software engineer based in New York City. I love building impactful solutions with distributed systems.

I currently serve as a Principal Engineer at Ramp, where I focus on the areas of identity and user management. I work with a small team to improve Ramp’s invite flows and user integrations (SCIM, HRIS, etc).

Previously, I was the CTO and Co-Founder of Human Intelligence, the team behind SixAI and ResearchRabbit. This experience was invaluable and helped to hone my skills in leadership and product development.

My foundation in backend engineering was built at leading companies like Confluent, Reddit, Optimizely, and LinkedIn. I hold dual degrees in mathematics and computer science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, specializing in operations research on the math side and distributed systems on the CS side. When I’m not coding, I enjoy contributing to my community through volunteering, and pursuing my love for soccer.
