Hi, I’m Sharatkumar, a Senior Engineering Manager and Software Architect based in Mumbai, India. With over 16 years of experience in software engineering, I specialize in building intelligent, scalable, and immersive systems that merge AI, GenAI, AR/VR, and mobile technologies.
​
I currently lead AI and XR engineering at Jio Tesseract, where I focus on designing architectures and frameworks that power next-generation enterprise AI solutions. Earlier, as a Software Architect at Square Panda, I developed AI-driven learning platforms, GenAI-based lesson planners, and interactive educational SDKs that blend creativity with technology.
​
My journey began in game development, where I contributed to global titles like Tetris Blitz, Real Racing 2, and Jungly Jump — experiences that honed my passion for performance, design, and user engagement. Over time, I transitioned from crafting games to architecting AI ecosystems, staying true to one guiding principle: build technology that enhances human experience.
​
Outside of work, I share insights on my tech blog, writing about AI, speech processing, and engineering best practices. I’m also an avid photographer, capturing nature and family moments, and a stamp collector fascinated by the art and storytelling behind Indian miniature postage stamps.
