As an Engineering Director, I empower developers to do the best work of their lives. At Epic Games, I built eight internal platforms, delivered $5.5M+ in savings and avoided costs, gave developers their time back and grew the platform organization from 5 to 40
Before Epic, I spent 10+ years removing engineering friction at Niantic, Expeditors and Microsoft. Such as eliminating 8,000+ manual-test hours a year on the most downloaded game globally (Pokémon GO).
People say the results I bring build stakeholder confidence, reduce engineering friction and ensure that patterns become reusable platform saving developers time and companies money.
HOW I GIVE ENGINEERS THEIR TIME BACK:
1️⃣ FIND THE PAIN: At Epic, Fortnite engineers spent 70 to 80% of their time firefighting while pipelines stayed red for days. I traced the lost hours and ownership gaps
2️⃣ DELIVER QUICK WINS: Clear ownership and automated escalation restored reliability within six months. Partner teams trusted us again
3️⃣ PRODUCTIZE WHAT WORKS: Early results secured $2.2M a year. I grew the team from 5 to 40 and turned repeat problems into eight self-service platforms
CAREER IMPACT:
✅ Epic Games: Delivered $5.5M+ across eight internal platforms
✅ Niantic: Eliminated 8,000+ Pokémon GO manual-test hours annually
✅ Microsoft: Cut Cortana and Bing Travel tests from days to hours
✅ Expeditors: Built its first Java test framework for self-service CI/CD testing
HIGHLIGHTS AT EPIC GAMES INCLUDE:
➡️ Visual checks cost $10M+ a year. I made the process 50% more efficient across eight teams and 10 platforms saving ~$3M
➡️ Automation let a 125-person test organization support more titles, avoiding ~$2M headcount
➡️ Nightly pipelines were slow and unstable. I rebuilt CI/CD, which ran 46% faster, became 70% more stable, reclaimed 60,000+ build-agent hours and saved about $500K
➡️ Teams faced 2,000+ code changes daily. Build Insights turned them into release intelligence for 300 daily users
OUTSIDE WORK:
🍽️ AT DINNER: When my wife said she hated deciding what to cook, I built MealBrain with my AI Software Factory
🤝 WHY I STARTED HAR SEWA: Growing up in India, I saw people go without medical care and education, because of that I founded a charity eight years ago
LET'S GIVE ENGINEERS THEIR TIME BACK
When developers spend time on busy work, companies waste the talent they hired to solve hard problems, I'm the one who's brought in. If you're looking for an engineering leader, let's talk.
