About me

Building the bridge between product and community.

I work across developer education, community operations, events, partnerships, and product storytelling.

My best work happens when developers feel heard and products become easier to understand.

I’ve built communities from scratch, shaped ambassador programs, organized large-scale developer events, published technical guides, and developed partnerships across India and global ecosystems.

Testimonials

In their words.

From the people I’ve worked with.

It's a pleasure to recommend Jay, who served as our India Developer Relations Lead for more than two years. Jay played a pivotal role in building and expanding our developer community, with contributions spanning everything from organising events and representing our team externally to cultivating strong relationships with developers across local meetups. He handled every responsibility with professionalism, commitment, and a strong sense of ownership.

We first connected with Jay when we sponsored a hackathon he was organising. That initial collaboration laid the foundation for a long-term partnership. Jay later joined us in a more structured capacity when we launched our ambassador programme, which he helped shape from the ground up by identifying exceptional student leaders at top universities, offering mentorship, and ensuring ambassadors felt supported and aligned with our mission.

His work was instrumental in transforming the programme into a well-organised and high-impact initiative. What sets Jay apart is his positive, can-do attitude and his versatility. I'm confident he will continue to excel in future roles involving community building and developer relations.

Jay is an exceptional DevRel professional, one of the best I've worked with. As his direct manager at Quine, I watched him rise rapidly through the ranks, a testament to his outstanding hustle, determination, and ability to deliver real impact. He's the kind of person who thrives in high-growth environments, combining sharp strategic thinking with hands-on execution to drive meaningful engagement and growth.

What sets Jay apart is his deep understanding of developers and how to build authentic, lasting relationships with them. He knows how to craft strategies that resonate, whether it's through content, community initiatives, or product-led growth. I'd highly recommend him.

Abhi SEx COO, Quira

Jay is a get-things-done type of guy. With a unique fearlessness, he remains calm in the face of scary challenges. One thing that is heavily appreciated with Jay is that nothing is unattainable, and he can always listen to a problem, come up with a plan and execute it till the job is done! I am lucky I got to meet Jay in my career. I think his skills within the developer community and his ability to grow those communities make him a Tier A talent in the DevRel world.

Anyone looking to learn more about growing developer communities can be confident that Jay has tried, tested, and succeeded in this space. I wholeheartedly recommend Jay to any organisation fortunate enough to consider him.

Worked with Jay on a few campaigns for Composio, super reliable and easy to collaborate with. He really got what we were trying to do and helped us engage the right dev audience.
