Hello! I’m Jathurchan Selvakumar (Jat / Jett)

Software engineer focused on distributed systems, databases, and applied ML for retrieval. I build fault-tolerant and data-driven systems that stay reliable under scale.

Current Focus

llm-mux – Framework for Cost-Efficient LLM Applications

A lightweight FastAPI framework to build LLM applications fast — with tiered model routing, cost optimization, and observability out of the box.

Selected Work

RaftLock

Built fault-tolerant, distributed lock service in Go, implementing Raft consensus algorithm from scratch to ensure high availability and data consistency.

Amazon

Successfully migrated 5 backend services to CloudAuth, executing safe, staged rollouts and ensuring business continuity by validating rollback plans.

Withings

Built e2e pipeline for AI-powered health insights, serving 6M+ users. Led cross-team API redesign improving maintainability and scalability.

AWS

Built observability system cutting false alerts by 99% for DynamoDB (billions of req/s). Improved new Rust client reducing p99 latency by 28%.

Applied ML

I am deepening my specialization in applied ML and information retrieval. I am certified in Deep Learning (2022), Generative AI with LLMs (2023), and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) (2025).

I design, build, and maintain systems that are not only scalable but also resilient and performant. My goal is to create software that endures.
