I work to close the gap between AI ambition and AI that actually ships safely.
Technology Executive · AI & Enterprise Architecture Leader · Certified AI Engineer
I’m a technology executive with 25+ years spanning enterprise architecture, platform modernization, and intelligent automation. Today my work centers on enterprise AI transformation — embedding generative AI and ML across the software lifecycle, integration fabric, and operations, and defining the security, governance, and trust frameworks that let organizations adopt AI safely and at scale.
My signature work includes a defense-in-depth security model for multi-tenant, agentic platforms — tenant isolation across identity, API/BFF, and data layers, fronted by a multi-stage AI gateway — and a trust-governance approach that treats AI output as a proposal: validated deterministically and audited before it ever reaches a system of record.
Connect on LinkedInI’ve driven the AI-enabled transformation of a several hundred millions revenue platform — governing multi-million-dollar budgets, leading a global engineering organization, and modernizing legacy estates into cloud-native, AI-native ecosystems while sustaining 99.98% uptime. I architected a commercial-grade integration framework that replaced legacy middleware and became the integration fabric that AI and ML workflows plug into.
Earlier, as Vice President & Chief Architect at Stone Bond Technologies, I architected Enterprise Enabler, a commercial-grade EAI/ETL integration platform adopted by Fortune 500 clients, and hold a U.S. patent (Integration Integrity Manager) from that work. I began my career as a Rocket Scientist at an Aerospace R&D Laboratory, designing aerospace mechanisms and mission-critical systems, and hold an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Madras.
I write regularly on trustworthy AI for multi-tenant, agentic systems — see the Insights for my latest thinking.
Certifications & credentialsI help enterprises adopt AI they can stand behind — to their board, auditors, and customers alike.
When I’m not architecting AI systems, I enjoy solving chess endgames, spending time with my pets, and riding my Royal Enfield Himalayan. I also stay active in volunteering and charitable causes.
