Viswanath S — Director of Engineering
With 20+ years in consulting and engineering, I help organizations—from top global brands to emerging enterprises—turn data into a growth engine. I transform enterprise data architecture and analytics, embed AI at scale, and build high-trust, empowered teams that drive innovation. My focus is not just on technology, but on reshaping how organizations use data to unlock growth, efficiency, and smarter decision-making. In my current role at Walmart, I lead enterprise-wide data transformation for a $4B+ Walmart International entity, delivering a modern, AI-powered platform that solves strategic business challenges and unlocks growth by unifying data engineering, data science, analytics, and reporting. Prior to joining Walmart, I worked as a Consultant at Thorogood, a global consultancy specializing in Business Intelligence and Analytics. I joined Thorogood as one of the first eight recruits in India and grew to become the Country Chairman during my tenure of 16 years. In the role, I delivered enterprise-scale solutions for Fortune 500 clients and established high-performance culture across the company by hiring and developing top-tier engineering talent.
