ABOUT SHEKHAR SIVARAMAN

I have over 18 years of experience in greenfield product development across my career. My experience spans roles in Architecture, Program, Product and Engineering management. I consider myself full stack and have worked on Web frontends, Embedded systems, Mobile apps, Backend development, Devops,Security and Data science across multiple clouds. During my time in GE, I built multiple IOT products for both fleet management of GE\'s power generation assets around the globe as well as products targeting edge/on-site monitoring of GE\'s power plants.These products all utilized bleeding edge technologies of their time. These products had a customer base across the globe and had an impact of millions of dollars for each deployment. In Cimpress, I was responsible for building a API ecommerce platform targeting the group businesses on a #MACH ( Microservices-based, API-first, Cloud-native, and Headless) stack.I also led the development of a big data lakehouse platform and incubated a State of the Art product recommendation solution powering increased product discovery, purchases and engagement for multiple ecommerce websites. I also led the development of a NLP based web crawling and indexing platform for personalized marketing. I left Cimpress to join JSW One as a founding member in 2021. During my time in JSW One, I built India\'s first pure tech enabled B2B ecommerce marketplace integrated with the larger ERP footprint of the group businesses. This was also the fastest achievement of unicorn status for an Indian company. Along with this role, I also served in a technical advisory role on their Home construction business. I joined Miko AI, a consumer AI and robotics company in 2022 and continue to work there enabling them to scale their Product, Processes and Operations. I joined NBSL in 2024 to revamp and scale their technology and platforms.I also blog on medium @ https://medium.com/@shekhar.siva2609/
