Sukhbir Singh

Senior Site Reliability Engineer, Wikimedia Foundation

The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." — Isaac Asimov

About me

I work at the Wikimedia Foundation as a Site Reliability Engineer on the Traffic team where I am involved with running Wikimedia's CDN and DNS infrastructure. Before joining the Foundation and in a previous life, I used to work with the Tor Project as a developer and community advocate.

I am passionate about cryptography, security, and privacy, and have worked on designing and implementing privacy-enhancing technologies, hoping to empower people with the tools they need for the betterment of the world.

And now for some fun stuff: my favourite dish/food is dal makhani served with paratha and chilled lassi.
