About

Engineering leader with 12+ years building at scale. Rebuilt myself in the process. I build products with care — and now, with clarity. After over a decade in tech leadership, I reached a point of personal collapse. What followed wasn’t another productivity hack. It was surrender. Recovery. Stillness. Truth. And a surprising guide: the Bhagavad Gita — not as a book, but as a mirror. Through deep inner work, I’ve started showing up differently — as a technologist, a manager, a creator, and a man in the world. Today, I lead the Video & App Experience charter at Flipkart. But behind every sprint and roadmap, I hold a new metric: alignment. My work lives at the intersection of: 🎯 Product engineering and system design 🧘‍♂️ Recovery and emotional clarity 📿 Ancient wisdom applied to modern leadership 🚀 0→1 product building with cross-functional impact I now share reflections on surrender, presence, and building with heart — through short videos, real stories, and the verses that changed my life. 🎥 Recent post: bit.ly/3ZTkZcF If you're building, healing, or both — I'd love to connect.
