About

As the founding CTO of Happy People AI, I lead the technological vision and strategy, driving innovation and growth through advanced technology integration. I focus on building scalable, future-ready solutions, orchestrating high-performing engineering teams, and maintaining strong relationships with stakeholders to ensure our platform sets new standards in its offerings. Before co-founding Happy People AI, I played a pivotal role at Al Jazeera Media Network, in its digital transformation journey. I managed landmark projects at Aljazeera, including the Coverage of Covid Pandemic, US Elections of 2020, digital operations for the 2022 Qatar Football World Cup, the Russia-Ukraine war to name a few. I led cross-functional teams across product development, Mobile/Web Engineering, DevOps, and Quality compliance, corroborating seamless execution and innovation under tight deadlines. This experience sharpened my ability to manage complexity, scale operations, and deliver results that drive strategic objectives. With a background in engineering and business—having earned an MBA from IMT Ghaziabad and a Bachelor’s in Engineering from Manipal Institute of Technology—I bridge the gap between technology and business strategy, ensuring we consistently innovate and scale our solutions to meet market needs. Specialties: Strategic Technology Leadership, Digital Transformation, Stakeholder Collaboration, Product Lifecycle Management, Scalable Solution Development, Cross-Functional Team Leadership, Business Strategy, and Digital Innovation.
