Nishant Krishan As of December 2025, I lead the Road Attributes team in Google Maps as a Tech Lead and Manager (TLM), focusing on the complex geo-spatial data challenges that power global navigation. My career at Google, spanning over a decade, has been defined by consistent growth through promotions and a deliberate expansion of technical breadth, from Apps Search Quality, Gmail Infrastructure & Compliance to Gemini Reliability and now Maps. Prior to Maps, I served as a Staff Software Engineer spearheading infrastructure reliability for the entire Gemini product suite (API, Web, Mobile, and AI Studio). My background is deeply rooted in building large-scale systems, having previously engineered scalable solutions for compliance and search indexing within Google Search Quality and Gmail Backend. This journey across the stack, mastering Service Reliability, ML infrastructure, quality, compliance, and now geo-spatial data, has honed my ability to lead engineering teams through ambiguity. I am passionate about combining technical leadership with people management to build resilient systems and high-performing teams, while continuing to solve hard problems in distributed systems and latency optimizatio
