What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a CXO / SVP mandate across India, GCC and Africa.

At Innovexsis Consulting, I lead an AI-first Growth Studio scaling a portfolio of seven AI startups. I conceived, designed, built, branded, marketed and monetised a 20+ product AI SaaS portfolio, with engineering delivered by outsourced partners under my architecture, security and delivery governance.

At Bareilly Smart City Ltd. (SPV, MoHUA), I was the city-side technology head accountable for the end-to-end ICT program. I integrated 60+ subsystems and 1,500+ field devices into the ICCC platform and secured MoHUA milestone approvals and fund releases.

Across roles at NIXI, TASMU (Ooredoo), Globacom Ltd., Omantel and du, I have advised on national internet infrastructure, sovereign cloud, smart-city programs and enterprise ICT. I’m seeking a CXO / SVP mandate across India, GCC and Africa.
