From Concept to Product: 20+ Years of Driving R&D and Innovation in Automotive & Technology: With over two decades of rich automotive experience—including tenures at Mercedes-Benz, BMW, ZF Group, and now ENOVIX Corporation—I’ve had the privilege of working across the full spectrum of engineering innovation, R&D transformation, and organizational leadership. Currently, as Senior Director & Head of India Operations at ENOVIX, I lead high-performance teams focused on cutting-edge battery technology. My mission: scale global R&D, build future-ready teams, and transform ideas into tangible product value—faster, smarter, and more sustainably. At ZF Group, I led several high-impact initiatives: 🔹 Evolved the organization into a full-fledged Global Capability Center (GCC) 🔹 Created innovative value-adds to product portfolios through forward-thinking R&D 🔹 Drove multi-million dollar cost savings via process optimization and localization 🔹 Built long-term, high-performing teams aligned with global strategies 🔹 Championed Indo-global collaboration for market expansion Throughout my career, I’ve stayed grounded in a core belief: Great products are born where vision meets execution. Whether contributing to premium brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz or pioneering new energy solutions at ENOVIX, I’m passionate about connecting R&D with real-world impact. I continue to be inspired by the possibilities at the intersection of technology, people, and purpose—and I’m excited about what the future holds for battery technology.
