About

Engineering leader with 13+ years of experience scaling distributed systems and product engineering teams in fast-paced fintech and e-commerce environments. I currently lead customer experience platforms at Flipkart, managing 25+ engineers across multiple squads building post-order journeys, self-serve CX platforms, and agent tools at scale. Previously, I led fintech engineering at Flipkart, where I launched and scaled platforms like the Flipkart-Axis credit card system, fintech app management, and internal payment discovery tools—impacting millions of users. Before that, I drove the SaaS transformation at Betterplace by modernizing legacy systems into scalable, microservices-based platforms and enabling high-availability product delivery. I thrive in environments that value ownership, cross-functional collaboration, and long-term technical strategy. Passionate about mentoring engineering teams, improving delivery agility, and building platforms that align technical excellence with business impact.
