Engineering Leader Building AI-Native IoT Platforms.

15+ years scaling distributed platform teams across four continents — from co-founding Teramatrix (acquired) to leading a 50-person engineering organization at Airlinq. Today, embedding AI-assisted development and AIOps into the engineering culture for Fortune-500 operators and global automotive OEMs.

Expertise

What I do.

AI-Assisted Development & AIOps

Claude Code agent specs, LLM-driven code review, automated repo evaluation, and ML-based anomaly detection across Kubernetes fleets. Engineering velocity up ~40%; false-positive alert storms eliminated.

Connected Vehicle & IoT Platforms

Enterprise CMP for Tier-1 MNOs — real-time device lifecycle management at 50M+ endpoint scale. OTA orchestration and telemetry pipelines for Daimler and GM at automotive scale.

Engineering Leadership

0→1 team building (Teramatrix, acquired by Airlinq), scaled to a 50+ person remote-first organization across India, LATAM, Middle East, and Japan. M&A technical integration and async culture design.
