About

Santosh Verma is an engineer-turned-entrepreneur with over 12 years of experience developing embedded systems, IoT, and robotics products from the ground up. He holds both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Agartala. After college, he founded Go Web, a daring startup aimed at empowering local shop owners by bringing them online. Although Go Web didn’t scale as hoped due to product–market fit issues, it laid the foundation for future success. In his next venture, IoTronix, Santosh pioneered cloud-less smart switching technology, introducing one of the most innovative Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) models that transformed smart hotel and smart home automation in India and abroad. Later, Santosh joined Unbox Robotics, where he contributed to building advanced robotics solutions for warehouse automation, helping scale systems that are now redefining logistics efficiency. Currently, Santosh is leading Proxgy’s flagship product – the Smart Safety Helmet – a groundbreaking innovation at the intersection of IoT, hardware, and AI. Since joining in 2024, he has been instrumental in scaling the product from concept to market, earning recognition as the “hero product” of Proxgy. His rapid growth at Proxgy saw him promoted to Lead Smart Hat. Beyond building products, Santosh is passionate about mentoring young entrepreneurs and students. He frequently delivers guest lectures, sharing his journey of building and scaling products, inspiring the next generation of innovators.

  • I have not only built various software components at Unbox to handle hardware peripheral devices but also led the team to ensure software stability, scalability, and reliability. I have ensured smooth client integration activities without delay. I have helped solve 2 major blockers that held unbox from scaling the robot fleet beyond 15-20 robots.
  • 1. I have helped solve the network clogging issue caused by robot multicasting. It was preventing the robot fleet from operating more than 15-20 robots without lag and errors. The solution was tested and verified with 45+ robots.
  • 2. I have helped solve the fast roaming issues on the robot fleet. It was preventing the deployment of systems in a large area where network switching was required.
  • 3. Helped with various ease of deployment-related activities
  • 3.1. Version control: It was the first change implemented at a lightning-fast pace.
  • 3.2. Dockerized code: It reduced the installation time and error significantly. It also paved the way for one-click installation like OS installation.
  • 3.3. Bash scripts: I have worked on various automation scripts to ensure smooth operation i.e. log collector etc.
  • 4. I have handled multiple customer software integrations to ensure smooth integration activities without delay.
