Our Mission

As an early engineer at Microsoft Azure, Venkat pioneered public cloud technology and played a key role in developing Azure's networking team, writing significant parts of the compute and network controller stack. Recognizing the lack of hyper-scale automation techniques outside of cloud giants like AWS and Microsoft, Venkat founded DuploCloud to bring these techniques to the masses and revolutionize mainstream IT.

With a background in managing engineering and operations across various industries, Zafar grew his passion for systems infrastructure at Motorola's telecom networks and Microsoft Azure's cloud services. He later applied that passion as an engineering leader at startups like Zenefits and JUUL Labs, managing cross-functional technology teams. As head of engineering and operations at DuploCloud, Zafar sets a high bar for technical excellence and customer experience.
