Summary
Jaimal Chohan is a hands-on VP of Engineering based in London with 12 years of experience designing and scaling distributed systems and leading cross-functional engineering organisations. He has progressed through senior technical and leadership roles at Stream and Just Eat, shaping microservice strategies, API gateways, and platform engineering across global teams. Known for marrying engineering strategy with business outcomes, he repeatedly increases velocity and reduces incidents by aligning teams to measurable goals. He brings deep practical experience in cloud-native architectures, serverless experiments, and multi-language integrations (Python, .NET) from large-scale e-commerce and logistics platforms. Beyond day-to-day leadership, he’s comfortable rolling up his sleeves—contributing code, running retrospectives of retrospectives, and restructuring hiring and delivery processes to drive lasting change. An interesting throughline in his career is repeatedly proving architecture-first experiments (e.g., API gateways and modular serverless functions) that enable low-risk product validation in production.
