Pulkit Mendiratta is a Founding Engineer currently leading product and platform development at Avery in Amsterdam, bringing 8 years of hands-on software engineering and a founder’s mindset to growth-stage challenges. He previously built scalable systems at Databricks (2019–2025) and helped scale Unacademy from early discovery to a broad subscription-driven product, experience that shaped his passion for turning monolithic architectures into modular services.

With a track record across startups and unicorn-adjacent environments, he combines hands-on execution with a strategic eye for scalable, maintainable systems.
