Shubham Chaturvedi — CTO

A seasoned technology executive with 12+ years of experience in software design, development and strategic leadership across fintech, e-commerce, supply chain, health-tech, and e-consumer platforms. I specialise in building scalable, distributed systems from scratch and transforming legacy platforms with modern tech stacks to drive real business outcomes. I’ve led cross-functional engineering teams of 80+ members — including Directors, Engineering Managers, Tech Leads, and Architects. My leadership philosophy focuses on empowering teams, driving ownership, and grooming future leaders while ensuring engineering excellence and agility. My core technical strengths lie in microservices architecture and distributed systems, leveraging Java (Spring Boot) and Node.js. I have hands-on experience with real-time data streaming using Kafka, building micro-frontend applications with React and Angular, and developing cloud-native solutions on AWS and GCP. I’ve also led initiatives to implement robust CI/CD pipelines, re-architect monolithic systems, and unify fragmented technology platforms to enhance scalability, performance, and reliability. I bring strong executional depth — combining long-term vision with short-term prioritisation. I align engineering goals with product strategy, resulting in measurable impact such as 6x revenue growth and enhanced delivery velocity. Beyond core technology responsibilities, I’ve also been actively involved in managing vendor collaborations, overseeing third-party tool integrations, and nurturing strategic partnerships — all of which played a key role in scaling operations efficiently. At MediBuddy, I had the opportunity to lead the product development from the ground up, contributing to a platform that now serves millions of users each day. At mPokket, I was closely involved in driving digital transformation initiatives, focusing on enhancing critical business processes across disbursement, repayment, autopay, and reconciliation. My journey also includes being a founding member at high-growth startups, helping them scale with lean teams and limited resources. I thrive in solving complex product and people challenges and take pride in building inclusive, high-performance engineering cultures that grow with the business.
