About

I’m Ravi — a results-driven leader with over 18 years of experience at the intersection of technology, business strategy, and sustainable innovation in the built environment. I specialize in delivering outcome-based solutions across smart buildings, industrial estates, critical infrastructure, and commercial environments throughout APAC. With a strong foundation in IoT, AI, and cloud platforms, I’ve successfully led end-to-end delivery of transformative digital projects for global giants like Honeywell, Siemens, ABB, and Johnson Controls. I thrive at the confluence of product development, pre-sales, and business development—bridging data science teams with real-world applications. My SaaS and domain expertise enables strategic conversations in data management, AI Ops, and scalable architecture. From guiding CxOs on digital roadmaps to mentoring teams in building user-centric products, I bring a consultative, innovation-first mindset to every challenge. A holder of 6 US patents and a passionate advocate for sustainable transformation, I actively engage with academia, industry stakeholders, and city leaders to advance the future of connected, efficient, and resilient infrastructure. Let’s connect and build the future—smart, secure, and sustainable.
