Managing three squads of around 6 engineers each — Platform Reliability and Product Engineering — across mission-critical HealthTech, Wellness and Payment/Billing systems. Directly owning end-to-end performance reviews, goal setting, and career development pathways. Enforcing p95 latency SLAs (~400ms) at 5K+ RPM and reduced production incidents by 30% through structured observability. Defined the technical roadmap and engineering standards across the HealthTech organization, integrating cloud-native orchestration and AI-driven workflows to balance feature delivery with strategic debt reduction. Elevated 2 engineers to senior roles through targeted mentorship and established rigorous Design Docs and Code Review frameworks to ensure cross-team architectural alignment and manage complex cross-squad dependencies. Implemented a cross-functional Engineering Excellence framework that standardized hiring rubrics and mentorship programs, reducing time-to-onboard for new hires by 40%. Spearheaded an infrastructure cost-optimization initiative, reducing annual cloud operational expenditure (OpEx) by ~$10K through instances right-sizing, auto-scaling policy tuning, and decommissioning redundant tooling.
