Engineering Head

Aug 2017 – Dec 2018 · 1 yr 4 mos · Bengaluru Area, India

Heading the Team based out of Bangalore (India) for a Middle East Based E-commerce establishment under stealth mode. Built the entire India Team grounds up - including but not limited to : Product, Backend, UI, Mobile (iOS, Android), QA, Catalog Operations, UX, DevOps, HR, SEO etc by taking right decision in terms of Hiring - Technically, Culturally, and Financially. After working for companies like Flipkart and OlaCabs and having seen E-commerce and Transportation up close, specifically in Supply Chain Management, I along with other core members function as a conduit between the Dubai entity and India Team. I help in translating the vision of CEO into a working model by putting the right technologies and right set of people in place.
Having done the design and architecture of this e-commerce system from the scratch and having a good understanding of the entire eco-system of micro services, I help engineers/product managers day-in and day-out in taking right decisions at work and solving the problems in the right way. I believe, experience teaches oneself not just how to do things in the right way, but also how not to do things in the wrong way. This is the platform where I get to apply all the experience I garnered over a period of time having worked for various successful startups.
We have also partnered with Global Giants like Adobe and Oracle for multitude of their products. Worked closely with Oracle Team in integrating Oracle products like Oracle Service Cloud for Customer Support, Financials, Logfire, Procurement, ERP etc into the eco system. Was involved in the decision making and was also an integral part of all the discussions right from their Sales Team till we implemented along with their Tech Team.

Developed and implemented a revolutionary concept using Image processing for detecting the flaws in missile parts. Even a minor flaw in the nozzle of a missile can lead to disastrous effects, which can have far reaching consequences. The defect in a nozzle is not always visible to the naked eye and hence I developed an image processing solution, which when provided with the images of nozzles points out the flaws in it.
