About Abhishek M.

I took a product with zero customers and turned it into a capability protecting millions of assets across 300+ enterprises — in two quarters.That was Anomaly Detection at Dell Technologies, part of a $250M cyber resilience portfolio I owned across product and engineering. I built the team from 2 people to 15, shipped zero-defect releases for four straight quarters, and introduced AI/ML detection covering ransomware patterns. When I deployed GenAI to automate definition updates, we cut the cycle from one month to near real-time.But the numbers I value most are the people ones. Zero attrition for three years. A 60% promotion rate inside two years. Four consecutive years above 75% on engagement scores. I have hired 20+ engineers across my career and built organisations of up to 26 people from scratch.Over 20 years, I have led engineering teams at Dell, Telstra, Avaya, Intel, and BMC - across cybersecurity, SaaS, cloud, and contact centre platforms. I am exploring my next Senior Engineering Manager or Engineering Manager role where I can combine deep technical grounding with the product perspective I have gained to build teams that deliver at scale.Top Skills: Engineering Leadership | Product Development | AI/ML Integration | SaaS & Cloud Architecture | Team Building & Scaling | 0 -> 1 Scal

Experience

1. Senior Engineering Leader (Multiple Roles)

   Dell Technologies

   Aug 2019 — Present

   I built two engineering organisations during this tenure. The first was Cloud Snapshot Manager — a SaaS solution protecting cloud workloads across AWS, Azure, and GCP — where I grew the team to 26 across three scrum teams, serving 100+ enterprise customers and protecting assets. The second was Anomaly Detection for PowerProtect Data Manager, which I launched with just 2 engineers and scaled to 15, reaching 300+ enterprise customers within two quarters. I drove 100% test automation, achieved zero-defect releases for four consecutive quarters, and maintained zero attrition for three years with a 60% internal promotion rate. Later, I stepped into Product Owner role to own the full product lifecycle for Dell\'s cyber resiliency portfolio — a $250M product line spanning three scrum teams and 25 engineers. I drove the creation of three distinct ransomware detection mechanisms covering patterns, implemented an ML-based behavioural detection model that reduced false positives, and introduced GenAI automation that compressed definition update cycles from one month to near real-time. In parallel, I mentored multiple product owners within a Scrum-at-Scale framework and aligned product roadmaps directly with executive leadership and business objectives.Top Skills: People Management | Product Development | Cloud Native Application | Hiring | Performance Review | Product Owner
