Director of Engineering driving AI-first platforms and large-scale distributed systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a visionary engineering leader with 19+ years building large-scale distributed platforms and driving AI-first transformation across consumer and B2B products.
At MakeMyTrip Group I lead 40+ engineers across Hotels, Affiliate, and FinTech verticals, owning end-to-end solutions that support ~$380–400M in annual hotels revenue and reporting to the CTO.
I’ve built company-wide GenAI foundations using prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, knowledge graphs and agentic workflows, architected high-throughput content platforms handling 800M+ requests/day, and led ML-driven image classification and semantic autosuggest initiatives that materially improved engagement and conversion.
I combine hands-on architecture and solutioning with org building, OKR-driven leadership, and cross-LOB platform unification to deliver scalable, high-performance systems and measurable business outcomes.
