About

As an Engineering Leader at Amazon Web Services (AWS), I leverage my 14+ years of cross-domain experience in product and software engineering to innovate and deliver solutions that have a wide impact across the business. I have deep knowledge across product strategy, product life-cycle management, product go-to-market, software engineering at scale, resource planning and allocation, and people management. I have worked across different industries such as Hi-tech, Gaming, Cloud, Retail, and Consulting, where I helped build, ship, and manage products at scale and having a billion transactions per day on a distributed system and a multi-million dollar daily run-rate business. I have experience with managing chaos and ambiguity associated with rapid business growth, using value-driven leadership, hands-on exemplification, and efficient processes. I believe effective leadership stands on four forces: Vision, People, Integrity, and Strategy. I strive to bring these forces to work every day and to share my insights and expertise with others who are looking for advice, guidance, or collaboration.
