About

I build the layer everything else depends on

I've spent more than two decades building the systems underneath products. I started in telecom, building value-added services platforms at Tata Teleservices and Telesoft. At Nazara Technologies I was Group CTO for nine years, leading 200+ engineers across eleven companies, as we grew into India's first listed gaming company.

Since 2021 I've been building my own companies, in governed AI, sovereign legal AI and preventive health. I still write code and sit in on the hard design reviews.

I take on a small number of board, advisory and executive mandates each year.

How I work

Three principles

  • Quality
    First time right, at scale.Correctness and reliability are engineered, not hoped for.
  • Risk
    Governance is a feature, not a gate.Build compliance into the kernel so the business can actually ship.
  • Craft
    Stay close to the code.The best strategy comes from someone who still builds.
