About Jyotiska Khasnabish
I build engineering teams and AI-first products that scale — from zero-to-one startups to platforms serving 30 million developers worldwide.At HackerRank, I lead the Developer Experience team building an AI-first IDE that brings Cursor/Copilot-grade agentic coding capabilities into technical assessments. I work directly with Fortune 500 companies and top tech firms to shape the future of AI-led hiring. Previously, I led HackerRank\'s AI-powered prep products serving 30M+ developers on the platform.Before HackerRank, I co-founded Uvi Health as CTO, where we built a women\'s health platform from scratch to 100K+ downloads and 31K+ users before being acquired by Philips. I\'ve also built and scaled agricultural supply chain technology at KrishiHub, serving 100K+ monthly transacting users across India.What I do best: take ambiguous, high-stakes problems and turn them into shipped products with high-performing teams. I\'m energized by the intersection of AI, developer tools, and platform engineering — especially when it means building something that didn\'t exist before.Open to connecting with engineering leaders, founders, and anyone building at the intersection of AI and developer experience.
