Fractional CTO & Tech Capability Partner
I help founders turn technology ambiguity into clarity — building secure, scalable engineering teams and products through AI, DevSecOps, and Global Capability Centres.
About
11+ years across architecture, hands-on engineering, and executive delivery — the stacks I work in and the hats I wear on every engagement.
Own the full technical blueprint — from stack selection and cloud landing zones to delivery governance — for enterprise platforms spanning analytics, GovTech, and BFSI.
Designed and shipped production AI systems: tender copilots, healthcare knowledge layers, meeting intelligence, and multilingual avatar kiosks with guardrails and on-prem LLM options.
Built secure delivery pipelines and identity layers — SSO integrations, SOC architectures, compliance-ready infra, and automated audit platforms for regulated industries.
Hands-on across the stack: 3D configurators, cross-platform SDKs, mobile apps, and headless commerce migrations — from architecture through marketplace-ready delivery.
Consolidated multi-source operational data into analytics platforms — metro operations, sports leagues, and enterprise reporting with executive dashboards and automated distribution.
Stood up and scaled India engineering centres from 5-person startup units to 150+ engineer enterprise GCCs — hiring, process, security posture, and client-aligned delivery.
