Sunny Agarwal — CTO
I am a passionate, responsible, and committed engineer with over 16 years of experience designing, implementing, and monitoring technically sophisticated web applications that tackle the challenges of large-scale systems and high-traffic environments. I have led and scaled high-performing engineering teams, mentoring developers across levels, driving a culture of ownership, and delivering impactful products with speed and reliability. I enjoy writing software that is “stupidly simple” – intuitive, robust, scalable, and performant. While I’m hands-on and comfortable as an individual contributor, I thrive equally in leading cross-functional teams, setting technical direction, and scaling engineering processes to support growing product and business needs. I'm a strong advocate of service-oriented architecture, YBIYRI (You Build It You Run It), and infrastructure as code. Over the years, I’ve led multiple end-to-end initiatives in the fintech, e-commerce, and supply chain domains—driving architecture decisions, defining engineering best practices, and building high-impact SaaS platforms. I’ve built and scaled engineering teams from the ground up, managed complex system designs, and delivered enterprise-grade platforms such as Warehouse Management, Inventory Management, and End-to-End Logistics systems that power critical business operations.
