Rajan Rawat Profile

About Me

Senior technical leader with 17+ years building and scaling software products across banking, payments, and insurance. I partner with Directors and CXOs to translate business goals into clear roadmaps and drive metrics-driven execution across scope, timelines, quality, and risk.

I’ve led cross-functional teams up to 60 and managed accounts billing ~USD 300K/month.

I focus on predictable outcomes—improving release predictability, availability, and delivery reliability through operating model improvements, team topologies, and AI-assisted delivery that increases engineering productivity.
