About

As a Senior Engineering Manager with 15 years of experience under my belt, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside some truly remarkable teams in the consumer internet, e-commerce, and fintech sectors. Currently at PayPal, I thrive on creating a space where innovation flourishes while aligning our goals with the broader organisational vision. My journey has been about more than just technology; it’s been about building relationships and fostering an environment where every team member can shine. One of my proudest moments is leading the Server Driven UI and Notification platforms team at PayPal. We aim to create a scalable frameworks that not only speed up our time to market but also allows us to experiment without breaking the bank. This initiative not only enhanced our development processes but also empowered my team to think outside the box and come up with creative solutions to complex problems. Before joining PayPal, I had a rewarding stint at Paytm where I managed both consumer and merchant platforms. I enjoyed navigating a rapidly evolving tech landscape while leading teams focused on delivering high-quality products across various platforms. My background also includes impactful roles at ShopClues and Snapdeal where I revamped front-end technologies that significantly improved user engagement—like reducing bounce rates by implementing modern frameworks . Outside of work, I'm passionate about mentoring emerging talent in tech. There’s something incredibly fulfilling about guiding someone through their career journey—seeing them grow from junior developers into confident professionals ready to tackle challenges head-on is truly rewarding for me.

  • I am well aware of the Importance of data tracking and hence was very keen on getting things right in terms of tracking. Integrated Adobe Analytics/DTM on our site.
  • Was actively involved in improving the SEO of our site and for that we implemented AMP. We replicated all the functionalities on our AMP PDP page that were available on our normal pages like search auto suggest, Add to cart, Buy Now, Variant Selection etc. Load time on AMP powered product details pages got reduced by 70%. Having established benefits of AMP, we served AMP pages not only to organic search users but for users coming to PDP from PLP & search listings too. For traffic coming from Organic Search, 29% jump in conversion was observed on AMP powered Product pages vis a vis Non-AMP pages.
