About

With over 19 years of experience, I specialize in engineering leadership, platform scalability, and distributed systems. At Bizongo, I lead the development of FinTech platforms that integrate AI-driven automation to enhance MSME access to working capital. By streamlining processes like invoice validation and order-to-delivery predictions, our team has accelerated loan approvals and reduced processing times, empowering businesses with faster access to resources. Previously at Flipkart, I drove tech innovations for Groceries, Furniture, and Hyper-Local services. By implementing robotics-based sortation and transitioning from monolithic systems to microservices, we achieved operational efficiency and improved customer satisfaction. Passionate about aligning technology with business goals, I focus on fostering collaborative teams that deliver impactful solutions.
