# Tejas Chopra
Storage architect at Netflix scaling massive systems and optimizing LLM performance.

## About

Tejas Chopra builds storage architecture at Netflix. He works on the data storage platform that supports both Netflix Studios and the core streaming infrastructure. Before this, he designed backend systems at Box to handle petabytes of cloud content.

Beyond distributed file systems, he occasionally builds tools to make AI applications more efficient. He recently created Headroom, an open-source library that reduces LLM token costs through content-aware context optimization. When he isn't scaling distributed systems, he draws on his systems engineering background from Carnegie Mellon.
