About

Engineering leader with 16+ years of experience building products, scaling platforms, and leading high-performing engineering teams across consumer internet, healthcare, e-commerce, and cloud communications domains. My career journey spans organizations including Yahoo, Lenskart, Portea, Kaleyra, and Exotel, where I have led engineering initiatives ranging from product development and platform modernization to cloud-native transformation, operational excellence, and team leadership. I am passionate about building engineering cultures that balance innovation, execution excellence, and business impact. My leadership philosophy centers on empowering teams, creating ownership, and aligning technology investments with organizational goals. Over the years, I have worked extensively with distributed systems, cloud technologies, microservices architectures, AWS, Kubernetes, platform engineering, and large-scale application development. Equally important, I enjoy mentoring engineers and managers, helping teams grow while delivering meaningful outcomes for customers and businesses. To strengthen my business and leadership perspective, I completed the General Management Programme for Business Excellence from IIM Kozhikode. The experience reinforced the importance of integrating technology strategy with business strategy, operational effectiveness, customer focus, and organizational excellence. Key areas of interest: • Engineering Leadership • People Management & Coaching • Platform & Cloud Engineering • Distributed Systems • Technology Strategy • Business Excellence • Organizational Scaling • Operational Excellence • AI-Enabled Engineering Productivity I am always interested in connecting with technology leaders, builders, and organizations focused on solving meaningful problems at scale.
