Expert Speakers

I lead AI platforms and engineering acceleration at Tech Mahindra, with responsibility across Foundations & Platform Services, AI Acceleration and Velocity Cells.

My work is centered on moving enterprise AI from fragmented experimentation to governed scale through reusable platform foundations, rapid acceleration mechanisms and focused execution models that improve engineering velocity, trust and transformation outcomes. I work across enterprise AI, platform engineering, DevSecOps, multicloud and software engineering transformation.

Over the years, I have led solutioning, presales, transformation and strategic initiatives across cloud, AI and digital services. I bring together business context, architecture, operating model thinking and execution discipline to help enterprises modernize, simplify, industrialize and scale.

I am particularly interested in AI-native operating models, simplification, digital trust and the future of large-scale engineering.
