The Role I'm Built For

I've done it

Led 200+ engineers, shipped production AI at scale

Built sovereign LLM infrastructure from zero. Scaled AI orgs from 40 to 200 engineers. Delivered measurable outcomes at Krutrim, Ola, and HERE Technologies.

I build for business outcomes

Every architecture decision has a number attached

70% cost reduction. 50% latency improvement. $10M+ revenue. I connect engineering depth to the metrics boards care about.

I govern, not just build

Evaluation pipelines, HITL, drift monitoring

I've implemented the controls that let AI run safely at enterprise scale — the layer most teams skip until something breaks in production.

Who This Portfolio Is Built For

  • Orgs moving from AI experimentation to production — where governance, cost, and reliability matter
  • Teams that need platform thinking, not just model tuning
  • Chicago-area or remote-first VP / Head of AI Engineering searches
