Ankit Kumar — CEO
I build AI-powered platforms that move business metrics — not just engineering metrics. Over 15 years, I've led engineering at every scale: from native mobile apps to distributed microservices platforms serving millions of users across Southeast Asia, and now global enterprise SaaS at Docusign. My core domain is the intersection of data infrastructure, AI, and marketing technology — building the systems that power personalised customer experiences at scale. At Docusign, I lead cross-continental MarTech and Platform Engineering teams (Bengaluru ↔ San Francisco), owning Customer Data Platforms, Snowflake data pipelines, and AI-driven customer engagement systems on AWS EKS. I also architected "The Council" — an autonomous, end-to-end SDLC automation platform that replaces fragmented AI point tools (Copilot, Glean) with a single governed control plane spanning requirements intake through production deploy, built on a typed 12-stage workflow orchestrator with policy enforcement, audit trails, and bounded autonomous coding agents. Before Docusign, I led retention and platform engineering at PropertyGuru Group (Singapore), building a User Profiling System and ML-powered New Home Recommendation Engine that drove measurable lifts in user engagement and retention — packaged as shared platform services on Kubernetes/EKS for use across regional product teams. What I bring to a Director or VP Engineering role: a builder's instinct for platform architecture, the org design experience to scale distributed global teams, and an AI-era perspective on what "engineering velocity" actually means in 2025 — governed autonomy, not just faster code generation. 📍 Bengaluru, India | Open to global remote and hybrid 🎓 AI for Leaders — IIM Calcutta | Generative AI — Snowflake × Vanderbilt | Blockchain — IIIT Bangalore
