👨🏻💻 Abhinav Das
👋 Hello, world. I'm Abhinav and I love solving problems with tech. I hail from Hyderabad, a city in India famous for its biryani.
I have 14 years of experience with breaking and building things. For 8 years now, I've been a manager of managers however I am super hands-on with technology.
In my current org, I serve as the Head of Engineering/CTO at a leading Venture Builder. Here, I am mainly involved with:
- getting high-quality stuff done on time
- bringing great people into the organization
- getting someone to replace what I do so I can go do other things
Previously, I worked as the Head of Engineering for Talent Inc., a tech-enabled career services business. Here, my team and I built popular internet brands like resume.io, career.io, topresume.com, and topcv.com. At Talent, I grew the engineering function from ~15 to >60 people. I was also actively involved with coaching and mentoring my people.
Thus far, across my career, I helped take one company public, built numerous 0-1 products, been part of founding teams of two web3 companies that raised more than $25M through ICOs.
Outside of work, I'm a "traveling foodie" ™️. 4 countries and counting! I care very deeply about music. Especially classical music. Don't worry, I'm not a snob. I currently actively learn the violin and the tabla in their respective Hindustani classical styles.
I like meeting new people and learning new things. So feel free to reach out on my socials:
