Ashu Gupta — CTO
As the CTO at TripJack and part of the founding technology team, I have helped build and scale one of India’s most successful and admired B2B travel platforms. Over the years, I have led the architecture, modernization, and scaling of end-to-end systems across Flights, Hotels, and Rail, enabling millions of daily searches, high-success-rate bookings, real-time availability, and fully automated operations. I have played a key role in transforming TripJack into a high-performance, AI-driven travel technology ecosystem — from search to booking to payments to partner integrations. My focus remains on high-scale engineering, deep automation, and fast, reliable product delivery across all travel verticals. I lead a 70+ member engineering organization across backend, frontend, mobile, DevOps, QA, and data, working closely with product and business teams to ship market-leading features with exceptional speed and stability. Key strengths & achievements across Flights, Hotels & Rail: 🛫 Flights: Designed and scaled architecture supporting millions of daily searches, automated booking flows, and industry-leading performance. 🏨 Hotels: Built hotel search, mapping, room selection flows, booking journeys, supplier integrations, caching layers, and automation to handle large inventory and complex rate structures. 🚆 Rail: Developed seamless search and booking systems for Rail (including complex seat availability handling, quota logic, and operational automation). 💳 Payments: Built a high-volume, secure payment infrastructure processing transactions worth crores daily across all product lines. 🔌 APIs: Delivered a unified, best-in-class API stack for Flights, Hotels, and Rail — widely adopted across partners and agencies. 🚀 Delivery & Scale: Enabled fast time-to-market, predictable releases, and minimal rollbacks through strong engineering practices and one of the most stable test environments in the industry. 🤖 AI Initiatives: Led AI and automation initiatives to improve search relevance, pricing intelligence, customer experience, and operational efficiency. ☁️ Cloud Optimization: Engineered cloud infrastructure with best-in-industry cost efficiency and performance. 👥 Leadership: Scaled and mentored a 70+ member engineering team, building a culture of ownership, agility, and engineering excellence. I’m passionate about building high-scale travel platforms, solving complex travel-tech problems across Flights, Hotels, and Rail, and shaping the future of the industry with AI-native systems, automation, and product-first technology leadership
