About

I have spent 15+ years building products. At some point, people started calling that experience. I just call it being unable to stop.My co-founder Prakash and I started SoluteLabs because we wanted to build things we actually cared about, work with people we genuinely liked, and never stop learning. We did not have a five-year plan. We had curiosity and a high tolerance for hard problems. Turns out that scales reasonably well.150+ products later, the one thing that has connected all of it is this: technology is never the answer to a business problem. Thinking is. The best code in the world built on a flawed product idea is just fast, elegant failure.Here is what I keep seeing in AI right now. Developers who were trained to be specialists, brilliant within their lane, heads down, depth over breadth, are suddenly expected to think horizontally across an entire product. To hold the user, the business, the market, and the technology in their head at the same time. Some people make that leap. Most do not. And that gap is precisely where AI products go to die.We built SoluteLabs to be on the right side of that gap. Not a team that learned to use AI tools, but a team that genuinely thinks differently because of them. There is a difference, and clients who have worked with both tend to notice it immediately.If you want someone who will push back on your assumptions before writing a single line of code, I am probably your person. If you want someone who will just say yes and start building, I am definitely not that.If you are building an AI product and something feels off but you cannot quite name it, that is usually a good reason to talk.Outside of work I chase my two daughters, chase mountain trails on hikes, occasionally chase fish while scuba diving, and run distances that my body regularly questions the wisdom of.

India | US

SoluteLabs is an AI native product engineering company I co-founded with Prakash Donga in 2014. We have shipped 150+ products for clients across the US, Australia, UK, and India. We are official technology partners with ElevenLabs (Solution Partner), Google Cloud Platform (Partner), and Sanity (Agency Partner). Our work focuses on building production AI systems that integrate deeply with existing business infrastructure rather than standalone demos. Some of the AI systems we have built recently: • Multi-agent conversational AI for healthcare using ElevenLabs and GCP, handling drug denial workflows and patient education for a US provider • AI sales automation workflows for MarketingHire, replacing Typeform with voice interfaces and orchestrating inbound sales through n8n and HubSpot • Multi-agentic outbound sales systems combining voice AI, workflow automation, and CRM integration • AI trading assistants for Solus Finance, trained on user behavior to suggest trades in real time • Computer vision pipelines for enterprise retail, achieving 97%+ accuracy on production workloads The through line across all of this work is product-level thinking applied to AI. The hard part is rarely the model. The hard part is figuring out what to build, how it integrates with what already exists, and whether it actually solves the problem.

Working at Redknee (now Optiva Inc) was a life-changing experience for me, Working from Phnom Penh, Cambodia - I played an instrumental part in setting up the telecom regulatory system with the use of conglomerated data from the whole country. Working with such a huge data set [telecom data from the whole country] has it's own set of challenges. I was more focused on further improving our product and creating new adjoint features with PL/SQL using Transactional/Dynamic queries. We were customising the volume management product of Redknee to regulate the traffic of the nation. My significant contributions were: ► Creating new and updating the existing reporting structure to improve efficiency by more than 40% ► Implement new and radical ideas to handle larger sums of data from multiple sources ► Automate processes to reduce manual effort ► Setting up of end to end configurations of 3+ Telecom operators and ensuring the post-implementation hiccups were ironed out My efforts, combined with the ownership that I took while working at Redknee always gave me the best performance awards, emails and personal acknowledgements from the superiors and clients alike.

From a Junior Trainee to a Lead developer, Team Leader and implementation specialist in less than 2.5 years span, TCS was very instrumental in shaping my career. Most of my domain knowledge was in the telecom domain where I learnt to juggle with large data sets and manipulating it to extract information from the same. Here, I learnt a myriad of technologies ranging from PL/SQL, Shell scripting to JAVA, J2EE, struts, Hibernate, Java Rich Faces, JBoss Seam, Intec Interconnect, etc
