About Navit Saxena
Engineering leader with 17+ years of experience across diverse technical roles. I lead the Engineering Agility team within Microsoft’s Marketplace organization, driving AI‑powered transformation across the Software Development Lifecycle to accelerate developer productivity. My work focuses on scaling modern engineering practices, advancing AI adoption across SDLC stages, and delivering high‑impact agentic experiences. Previously, as a Product Lead, I defined the vision and built advanced deal‑making capabilities for Azure Marketplace, such as private offers and multiparty private offers (MPO), empowering ISVs to execute negotiated transactions that materially contribute to marketplace billed sales.
