Samir Kumar S.
Technology Executive | Fractional CTO | Enterprise Architect | AI
I help startups and enterprise companies architect, modernize, and scale complex software platforms. With 28+ years of engineering experience, including 20 years in the Indian Air Force, executive leadership in a US Healthcare SaaS company, and 10,000+ hours of successful consulting on Upwork, I combine executive-level decision making with deep hands-on technical expertise. Unlike consultants who only provide recommendations, I design the architecture, write production-quality code, mentor engineering teams, solve critical production issues, and deliver systems that are secure, scalable, and maintainable.
