About Me

I am an Engineering & DevOps Leader with over 15 years of experience guiding startups and enterprises through technology transformation. My career has taken me from customer support and QA into DevOps, SRE, and eventually leadership, giving me a complete view of how engineering, operations, and business strategy come together.

In recent years I have focused on building and mentoring high-performing teams, driving cloud adoption at scale, and aligning infrastructure strategy with organizational growth. As Director of Infrastructure & DevOps at Aigent, I led global teams, established scalable CI/CD systems, optimized budgets, and ensured security and compliance for enterprise clients.

Alongside industry work, I have been active as a community builder and educator, leading DevOps Pune meetups with 3,000+ engineers and serving as a visiting lecturer at MITWPU and IMCC Pune. This balance of technical depth, leadership experience, and community engagement enables me to bridge strategy and execution — helping organizations scale reliably, securely, and cost-effectively.
