About

I’m an Engineering Manager at Rippling, leading the Inventory Management team. My team builds end-to-end solutions for device lifecycle management - from procurement and shipping logistics to assignment, unassignment, and end-of-life processes such as buyback and e-cycling. Previously, I led a team at Amazon Alexa, developing APIs, SDKs, and frameworks that enabled internal and external developers to access and control Alexa devices, groups (like Spaces and Multi-Room Music), and device relationships. I am a detail-oriented and methodical leader who thrives in ambiguous environments. I focus on bringing clarity and structure, building high-performing teams, and driving cross-functional alignment to deliver impactful, scalable solutions. My core strengths include strategic prioritization, stakeholder management, team development, and execution planning. I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science with a specialization in Machine Learning from Georgia Tech. Having worked across the USA and India, I bring a global perspective and adaptability to diverse teams and problem spaces. I’m always open to meaningful conversations, collaboration, and opportunities to build and scale great engineering teams and products.
