Summary
Mohit Gupta is an executive software engineering leader with 20+ years of hands-on and strategic experience building platforms and products from scratch across startups, enterprises, and public sector engagements. Currently an Executive Director at JPMorgan Chase after leading data product engineering at Visa, he specializes in scalable microservices, big-data workflows, and reusable platform components with a pragmatic focus on maintainability and test-driven practices. Known for turning large monoliths into modular, performant systems, he balances deep Java and open-source engineering expertise with strong product and architecture leadership. Mohit builds high-performing, trust-based, geo-distributed teams through deliberate hiring, coaching, and career development while embedding shift-left quality and frequent integration into delivery. He actively shares knowledge—blogging, open-source contributions, and internal training programs like Visa University—reflecting a continuous-learning mindset informed by an Oxford Executive Leadership program. Less obvious: he combines low-level concurrency and framework design experience from early product work with modern cloud and data engineering practices to bridge legacy systems and future-ready architectures.
