  • ● Enable programming of API gateways with static and dynamic endpoints, simplify service onboarding, and make it easy to expose APIs securely across clouds.
  • ● Design scalable mechanisms for service discovery and load balancing across thousands of clusters.
  • ● Provide networking abstractions so product teams don't need to worry about underlying connectivity details.
  • ● Build intelligent rate limiting and admission control systems to protect critical services under high load.
  • ● Ensure reliability and predictable performance for both customer-facing and internal workloads.
