Experience
28+ years delivering engineering automation, data platforms, and enterprise transformations across India, Southeast Asia and Canada.
The Cross-Domain Advantage
Most technology leaders operate within one domain — software or industry. My 28+ years span both: from surveying irrigation systems and mapping the earth for Google, to building BIM workflows at one of India's largest engineering firms, to leading Industry 4.0 at Tata Steel, to transforming a steel manufacturer into a publicly listed company, to re-architecting a global SaaS platform serving enterprise customers across US, Europe, and Japan.
Drones, LiDAR, BIM, GIS, digital twins — built and operated at scale, not consulted on.
Real-time analytics, NLP, ML models, streaming pipelines — each tied to measurable outcomes.
Product strategy, pricing design, go-to-market, and team scaling aligned with commercial growth.
Career Timeline
Lead product & engineering tribe for license lifecycle and analytics; accountable for product architecture, delivery, and India operations scaling.
