Piyush Deshmukh

I am an experienced software developer and team lead with a track record of success in startups and established companies. I played a crucial role in the product development and success of two startups that were later acquired, which gave me an in-depth understanding of the startup ecosystem. In my previous roles, I led teams of software engineers, collaborated with cross-functional teams, and proposed innovative projects that delivered value to customers. I have a passion for building and managing high-performing teams, fostering positive team culture, and driving results that impact the bottom line.
