About

Currently, part of the Hyperpure team at Zomato. In my previous role, I was heading the Mobile App team at Policybazaar for the past 1.5 years. I played a key role in restructuring the complete mobile app of Policybazaar and building the 14 member engineering team. I was responsible for the overall revenue and growth of the mobile app products for consumers, and new app initiatives for the company which include PB Inspect and PB Claims. During my tenure at Policybazaar, the mobile app revenue share grew multiple times, and the company launched various industry first offerings like PB Inspect and PB Claims. With over 9 years of experience, I have gained a lot of learnings from my experiences at early stage & growth phase Indian startups like Yumist and Bobble Keyboard. At Yumist, I worked with the co-founders and handled various functions ranging from Analytics, Operations, Product and Investor Strategy which were quintessential in building the first homely meals brand of India. Earlier in my career, I worked with Deutsche Bank as a Senior Risk Analyst where I was involved with the Tokyo Rates trading desk and helped the company with the IRS clearing initiatives particularly with London Clearing House and EUREX. I hold a B.Tech-M.Tech dual degree in engineering from IIT Kanpur.
