About Anirban Paul
Seventeen years in enterprise software teaches you one uncomfortable truth: the hardest problems are never in the code.I\'ve shipped systems at VMware, Ericsson, GlobalLogic, and Tech Mahindra, products at scale, across stacks, across countries. That\'s where my career has lived. But for the past decade, alongside all of it, I kept returning to a different kind of problem entirely.Construction. A sector worth trillions globally, still running on WhatsApp groups, spreadsheets, and colour-coded paper.Not my day job. Never was. But a long-running parallel engagement that turned into something harder to ignore, because the gap between what software can do and what it actually does on a job site is genuinely staggering.The people who need software to work are often standing in places where it never does. Offline-first isn\'t a feature in that world, it\'s the floor. Data has to be resilient, not just real-time. Platforms have to earn trust before they earn adoption.That decade of engagement, building, listening, learning how the industry actually operates, not how it\'s supposed to, is what I\'m putting to work now.I write regularly on AEC and technology. I founded Draftingware Technologies in 2024, and I\'m building something in this space I\'m not ready to announce yet. More intention than urgency.If you\'re drawn to where systems meet physical reality, or where AI has to genuinely earn its keep rather than be bolted on, we\'re probably thinking about similar things.

Experience
Founder
Aug 2024 — Present · Bengaluru, IN
Building at the intersection of AI and construction technology.The AEC industry runs on WhatsApp groups, spreadsheets, and paper, on sites where the internet doesn\'t reach and decisions can\'t wait. That gap has held my attention for over a decade. Draftingware is what I\'m doing about it.Early stage. Heads down. More when it\'s ready.
