About Amit Patel

Hi, I\'m Amit Patel, a FinTech Pre-sales Consultant. Let us connect if you are solving some FinTech Problems or tinkering with GenAI. Because I am passionate about helping FinTech companies succeed in the rapidly changing digital and technology landscape. And now my quest is to find ways to use GenAI in the FinTech World. Ever since I was ten years old, I have been fascinated with technology. I became an Electronics Engineer because of watching my dad tinker with his B/W TV at home. However, I fell in love with programming during engineering. My first job was as a Customer Support Engineer in an Anti Virus Software Company. But I wanted to get into programming, building software applications, and software products that people would use. So when my friends asked me, I said yes to building a Software Development Company along with them in 1997. I got a chance to make some 60+ software applications for 100+ customers in Manufacturing, Retail, Aviation, Marketing, and Logistics Industries in this company. I gained expertise in Microsoft Visual Basic.NET Technology, and MS SQL Database during this period. With this knowledge, I can create any enterprise-level application using this technology stack. After trying my hand at entrepreneurship for 11 years, I jumped into Leadership Roles within Software Companies. I started as a Technical Project Manager and quickly climbed the career ladder to become Head of Operations and Director of Software Development for an Enterprise CRM Software Company. Here I was able to build, grow, and manage multiple engineering teams and set up the Global Capability Centers (GCCs)/ Captive for Aptify Inc.(US-based MNC). In addition, I was responsible for recruiting, training, managing, and retaining highly talented software engineers. Most of my 23 years of experience happened in Pune, India, with a brief period of 3 years in Sydney, Australia. In addition, I have been to the USA 6 to 7 times on Business Trips to meet with Customers in the Users Conference held by my company. After this non-stop work of 23 years in the software industry, I took a sabbatical in 2017. From 2017 to 2022, I became a Coach, Mentor, Speaker, and YouTuber with a vision to help professionals & and entrepreneurs grow in their careers within the Software Industry. Since 2022, I joined Cybage as Delivery Manager where I was managing a team of more than 250+ people. Then I got an opportunity to represent FinTech Vertical in Cybage in a Sales Role. Let\'s get connected. Send me a LinkedIn message and we will meet and take it from there.
