## Headline

Engineering & R&D Leader \| AI/HPC & Data Infrastructure \| Distributed Systems \| Built & Scaled Global Engineering Teams \| Product Strategy & Engineering Transformation \| ex\-Dell, HP

## About

I build engineering organizations and complex infrastructure products at the intersection of AI/HPC, distributed systems, enterprise storage and data infrastructure\. Over 28\+ years with Dell Technologies and HP, I have progressed from software engineering and architecture through distinguished technical leadership into senior engineering management, combining deep systems expertise with product strategy, organizational leadership and engineering transformation\. Most recently at Dell Technologies, I helped build the India engineering organization for a next\-generation AI/HPC\-oriented parallel filesystem, scaling the team from 9 to approximately 26 engineers across filesystems, protocols, performance, deployment, DevOps and serviceability\. My experience spans: \- Engineering Organization Leadership: Building multidisciplinary teams, establishing critical technical capabilities and expanding India\-based engineering ownership\. \- AI/HPC & Data Infrastructure: Engineering leadership across parallel filesystems, performance, scalability and infrastructure supporting demanding AI/HPC workloads\. \- Distributed Systems & Enterprise Storage: Architecture, product development and modernization across complex file and storage platforms\. \- Product Engineering: Zero\-to\-one product development, engineering delivery, technical risk management and production readiness\. \- Engineering Transformation: Improving engineering governance, delivery predictability, performance validation and product quality\. \- Global R&D Collaboration: Working with CTO, senior architects, product management and global stakeholders on product & technology decisions\. Across my career, I have contributed to measurable improvements in product adoption, engineering throughput, performance and organizational capability\. What differentiates me is the ability to connect deep technical judgment with engineering leadership—understanding complex architecture while building the teams, processes and capabilities required to deliver reliable products at scale\. I am particularly interested in leadership mandates across: AI/HPC Infrastructure \| Distributed Systems \| Storage & Data Infrastructure \| Platform Engineering \| Global Product Engineering & R&D I am currently exploring Director and Head of Engineering opportunities where I can contribute through product ownership, technology leadership and engineering organization development\. Based in Bengaluru, India\. Open to relevant opportunities in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune and Chennai, as well as suitable global engineering mandates\.
