About

I am the founder of Wishfy, a pioneering startup specializing in landscape design and horticulture, offering comprehensive 360-degree services in agriculture and horticulture. With a robust background in the technology and payment sectors, I have previously contributed significantly to India’s largest transaction system, Paytm, where I architected a fault-tolerant and highly available data center. My experience also includes serving as a principal architect at OyoRooms, where I played a crucial role in optimizing infrastructure solutions. Additionally, I've worked with 1mg, IRCTC (Maharaja Train), and Gojek, one of Southeast Asia's largest payment companies, where I leveraged my expertise to drive innovations and enhance operational efficiency.
