About

šŸ‘‹ Hello, I'm Piyush Gupta! ✨ About Me: With over a decade in the tech realm, leading the charge in Product, Engineering, Design, and Team Management, I've steered three award-winning products. Known for executing strategic business plans flawlessly, I've fostered cross-functional teams that deliver projects on time and within budget. My forte? Identifying and capitalizing on opportunities with the latest trends, technologies, and best practices. 🌐 Current Venture - jumpingMinds.ai: In the dynamic intersection of technology and mental well-being, I'm crafting Jumping Minds—a DeepTech Health and Wellness Community. This is more than just a project; it's a sanctuary where emotions find expression, and solutions align with individual needs for holistic well-being. There is no room for straight faces; we're on a mission to spread smiles far and wide. 😊 Impact & Passion: In just two years, JumpingMinds has touched over 1 Million lives. It's not just about passion for technology; it's about recognizing that smartphones aren't ruining the world—it's how we use them from dawn till dusk. With Jumping Minds, we're aiming higher—to create India's biggest mental health community. It's about bridging emotional challenges with a vast network of peer-to-peer support and mental health professionals—counselors, therapists, and psychiatrists. 🌈 Vision & Collaboration: Our vision for a mentally resilient India has gained momentum with support from elite investors. If you share this vision, I'm open to collaborations. And if you're tired of the rhetoric that mental health is "made up," I invite you to join our thriving community; I promise, you won’t be disappointed. šŸ”§ Tech Competencies: In my tech playground, I'm proficient in Python/Django, Android, iOS, Javascript/React, React Native, Big Data, SQL, Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence, Product Management, UI/UX Designs, Data Security & Safety, Business Intelligence, and Cloud Stacks (AWS/GCP). ā˜• Beyond Tech & Code: When I'm not immersed in code, coffee, product releases, and tech stacks, I'm seeking stimulating conversations. Let’s exchange insights and create a society that normalizes mental health conversations and makes seeking solutions a routine. šŸ“§ Connect with Me: Feel free to reach out at piyushguptaece@gmail.com or via DM. Let's collaborate and weave a narrative that reshapes the discourse around mental health—making it an integral part of our routine. 🌐 Together, let’s create a society that normalizes mental health conversations and seeks solutions as a routine.
