I am a Technology leader with a strong product and business mindset, bringing 15 years of hands-on experience in technology execution and leading end-to-end technology programs across consumer technology and enterprise SaaS. Experienced across e-commerce, quick commerce, food delivery, subscription-based businesses, and AI-driven platforms. At Swiggy, I lead large-scale technology programs across Storefront, spanning discovery, search, personalization, menu, checkout, platformization, and consumer experience. What sets me apart is the combination of deep technical expertise and a strong product mindset. I understand the why, what, when, and how — from identifying the right problems and shaping product strategy to navigating architectural trade-offs and driving engineering execution. I connect business objectives, product decisions, and technical realities to build scalable solutions that deliver measurable outcomes. My experience spans: • Platform Strategy & Modernization — building reusable, scalable platforms and driving multi-team, multi-org technology transformations serving millions of users. • Product & Technology Strategy — translating ambiguous business problems into product and platform roadmaps, technical strategies, and measurable business outcomes. • AI & GenAI — driving AI-powered product experiences, personalization, discovery, intelligent workflows, and emerging GenAI initiatives. • Consumer Technology — deep experience across e-commerce, quick commerce, food delivery, search, recommendations, personalization, and checkout. • Technical Program Leadership — aligning Product, Engineering, Design, Data Science, ML, Architecture, and Operations to deliver complex, cross-functional programs. • 0→1 Innovation & Scale — taking products and platforms from strategy and incubation through engineering execution, adoption, and large-scale rollout. If you're looking for a technology leader who brings together product thinking, engineering depth, and strategic execution, let's connect. I bring an end-to-end perspective to solving complex problems, building scalable platforms, and translating business vision into technology that delivers impact.
