About

With 14+ years across high-growth startups like CARS24 and Policybazaar, I specialise in building HR systems that scale, driving People Success, Talent Density, and tech-led transformation across the org. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, culture, and automation. From designing performance frameworks and embedding AI in HR workflows, to hiring high-impact talent and building high-ownership teams, I bring a bias for action and a systems mindset to everything I do. At GoKwik, I am leading People Success & HR Strategy with a focus on: - Hiring critical and high-output talent - AI led HR automation for speed, quality, and consistency - Strengthening leadership & managerial effectiveness - Scaling performance and rewards with velocity - Driving clarity, accountability, and autonomy across teams I believe great cultures are built, not declared. And scalable HR isn’t about tools, it’s about trust + execution. If it moves the business forward, I am all in.
