Co-Founder & CTO @ Nuclei

About

I build things that banks wish they'd built themselves. As Co-Founder & CTO of Nuclei, I've spent the last 7+ years transforming how banks deliver digital experiences to 50M+ users across India, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. We inject Consumer Tech DNA into banking — making financial services feel as seamless as ordering food. Before Nuclei, I spent a decade shipping products at ChargePoint (EV charging), Tapzo (super app), and Nagarro — from mobile apps to enterprise platforms. What I think about: → AI in fintech — how agentic AI will reshape banking → Engineering culture — building blameless, high-trust teams → Scaling startups — from 0 to multi-geo operations → The future of digital banking in emerging markets I write about the intersection of AI, engineering leadership, and building products that matter. Let's connect if you're building in fintech, AI, or just want to geek out about engineering culture.
