Hi, my name is

Krishna Boreda

Developer · Problem solver · Pragmatist

I build software for the people on the other side of it. The work I care about is the kind that makes something measurably better for someone, a workflow that stops being painful, a bug that stops costing people time, a system that finally just works.

01 — About

A little about me

I'm a computer science grad from UT Dallas who genuinely enjoys the craft of building software - designing solutions, writing code, hunting bugs, and the small satisfaction of watching something I built land well with the people using it.

What I care about is impact. Code is only interesting to me when it makes something measurably better for someone — a workflow that used to be painful, a bug that used to lose people time, an integration that finally just works. That's the loop I want to keep being part of.

Five years in, my path has taken me from American First Finance , where I worked across an AS/400 backbone, PHP services, and a Vue frontend, to Sprinto, a modern SaaS compliance platform. The throughline has been spending more and more of my time close to the customer. That proximity has shaped how I think as an engineer. I've seen which kinds of bugs actually hurt users, which design choices cause confusion at scale, and what observability looks like when it's good. It's made me sharper about edge cases, more skeptical of happy paths, and more deliberate about the systems I help build.

Now I'm looking to bring that perspective back to building products that actually work for the people using them.

Where I've been

Oct 2025 — Present

Remote, India

Senior Support Engineer

current

Sprinto

  • Program-manage support for Sprinto's enterprise customers (30+ accounts), coordinating prioritization with engineering, and keeping product looped in on patterns/gaps worth fixing.
  • Launched and led the Integrations Support Pod, a focused effort to shorten the path from integration failure to resolution across 100+ third-party services.
  • Closed small product gaps by shipping pull requests for engineering review, the kind of fixes that would otherwise have sat in the backlog as low-priority feature asks. The customer-side context came from me; the codebase access came from internal AI tooling, which I used to draft the changes and then took through review.
  • Onboarding buddy and technical mentor for new hires joining the team.

Support Engineer

Sprinto

  • Debugged compliance-platform issues across AWS, Azure, GCP, and dozens of third-party integrations, tracing logs in DataDog and Sentry, working through APIs in Postman
  • Applied engineering-provided back-end scripts to resolve customer issues quickly: targeted data fixes, workarounds for missing functionality, and bulk updates the UI couldn't handle.
  • Co-led the Support SME initiative, a tier-2 layer that sat between frontline support and engineering. Resolved roughly half of escalated tickets ourselves before they reached engineering, and turned recurring patterns into process improvements that made the support-to-engineering loop tighter.

Things I've built

Carpool — Ride Matching App

An Android app that matches commuters traveling to the same destination, with built-in chat so drivers and riders can coordinate directly. Built with Java in Android Studio, using the Google Autocomplete API for destinations and Firebase for real-time data and messaging.
