Pune, Maharashtra, India
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmit Kumar is an accomplished engineering leader with 17 years of experience building cloud-native financial platforms, digital banks and lending infrastructure across APAC and global markets. He has repeatedly scaled engineering organizations—growing teams from dozens to hundreds—while instituting IaC, CI/CD, TDD and people-centric Agile models that improved delivery predictability and lowered costs. Amit has led major cloud migrations and high-throughput, event-driven platforms (sportsbook and banking systems handling millions of transactions and hundreds of thousands of real-time markets), and reduced infra and operational spend through pragmatic platform choices. He combines hands-on technical depth with boardroom-level product and organizational transformation experience from McKinsey to founding DKatalis in Pune for Bank Jago’s tech ecosystem. An experienced conference organizer and speaker in DevOps, JavaScript and Ruby communities, Amit also excels at translating complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders. His pragmatic mantra—“YOU TOUCH IT, YOU IMPROVE IT”—underscores a bias for ownership that has repeatedly turned around underperforming teams and platforms.
