๐Ÿ‘‹ About Me

Engineering leader with 15+ years building and scaling distributed systems and high-performing global teams across SaaS, MarTech, BNPL, and PropTech โ€” spanning India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ, Singapore ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ, and Malaysia ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡พ.

Currently a Senior Engineering Manager at Docusign (Marketing Technology), leading cross-continental teams across Bengaluru and San Francisco. I partner with Product, Business, and Data stakeholders to translate real customer needs into scalable platform capabilities โ€” and I'm actively targeting Director / VP Engineering roles globally.

My focus: building platforms that actually move the needle for customers, not just engineering metrics.
