About

Founder, Builder, Engineer : scaling systems, shaping teams, staying grounded, delivering outcomes. I build things — engineering teams, technology platforms, and companies. Most recently, I was Group CTO at Gojek (now GoTo), where I helped scale the platform from 300,000 to 120 million monthly orders and grew the engineering organization from a small team to over 2,000 engineers across four countries. Before that, I founded CodeIgnition (acquired by GoTo), and spent a decade at ThoughtWorks starting as employee #1 in India. After Gojek, I spent five years as Operating Partner at Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia India & SEA), working hands-on with portfolio companies on engineering team building, platform architecture, and technology strategy. I currently serve on DBS Bank's Technology Advisory Committee and mentor emerging tech leaders through IMDA's SG Digital Leadership Accelerator. What I care about: building great engineering cultures, shipping software that works at scale, open source, and helping teams navigate the messy middle of growing their technology organizations. I'm always interested in hard technical problems. If you're building something — let's talk.

  • Worked with Peak XV's portfolio companies across India and Southeast Asia on technology strategy, engineering team building, and platform scaling. Served as a hands-on technical partner to founders — not just reviewing decks, but getting into architecture, engineering org design, and hiring challenges.
  • Focus areas: engineering organization design, infrastructure modernization, SRE/DevOps practices, and helping technical founders navigate hypergrowth.
  • In 2023 We got rebranded, Sequoia India & Southeast Asia (SEA) rebranded to Peak XV Partners.
  • Our new name, Peak XV was the original name given to Mount Everest. To us, it signifies the relentless pursuit of audacious goals by our founders, while overcoming challenges along the way. It’s a new beginning for us as Peak XV, but unlike most beginnings, this is an opportunity for us to build on top of the foundation laid over the last 17 years. Our firm will continue to be managed by the present leadership team and will continue to invest from the most recently raised set of funds focused on India and SEA.

  • Joined Gojek when it was processing 300,000 orders a month. Left when it was doing 120 million.
  • Led the technology transformation that made that possible. Built and scaled the engineering organization from a small team to 2,000+ engineers across Indonesia, India, Singapore, and Thailand.
