9+ years of building Jumbotail. I play an organizational role in driving Jumbotail as a technology-first company and shaping culture and vision. I head engineering and build the technology that powers the future of retail in India. My teams and I have built systems ranging from search, personalization, marketplace systems, warehousing, logistics, payments, credit, POS, consumer products to event platforms and data platforms. All connected, all solving real problems for retailers, brands, and consumers. We scaled from one city to pan-India, from a handful of customers to millions of transactions, from tens of QPS to millions of QPS. I love building culture driven by ownership, curiosity, and commitment to the problem. Understanding things in depth, let it be users, problems, and technology, reflects and shapes the way I hire, build the organization, and solve problems. I try to keep the curious kid inside me intact by trying out different problems and technologies.

About

I am a problem solver at heart, a constant learner, and a startup enthusiast. I am driven by my passion for building technology for scale by getting the engineering foundations right and mentoring high-performance engineering teams with a 'Grow Together' culture and 'Extreme Ownership.' If you are looking to discuss on - Startups or Startup ideas - Building teams and building culture - Future of engineering and technology - Product innovation and strategy - Engineering design and architecture - Cloud infrastructure design - Writing the readable/maintainable/scalable code - I am a biryani away ;) If there is something to take away from this short introduction - this is one of the quotes which shaped my thinking and helped me from time to time :) “If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.”
