I turn messy problems into systems that scale, teams that ship, and ideas that survive contact with production. 8+ years of building things that actually work — and occasionally break in interesting ways.
I'm Upendher Musham — Engineering Lead at Kore.ai, where I help turn ambitious AI ideas into systems that don't fall over at 2 AM. I've spent 8+ years at the intersection of solid engineering and "wait, what if we just shipped it?"
From processing ₹150 crore/month in payments to co-founding a startup, I bring a full-stack perspective — not just in tech, but in business impact. The best engineers understand the why, not just the how. (The worst ones understand neither and blame the cache.)
When I'm not architecting microservices or growing teams, I'm reading, travelling, or hunting for the next problem worth solving. Certified Scrum Master. Google Hackathon winner 2019. Still undefeated against poorly written Jira tickets.
A track record of leading teams, shipping under pressure, and making scale someone else's problem.
Depth across the full stack — from infra to UI, with opinions on all of it.
Past projects taught me how to ship. These are what I'm building next.
A social network built for pet owners — because your dog's personality deserves more than a single Instagram story. Share moments, connect with fellow pet parents, and build a community around the creatures that actually run the household.
Visit pawgram.pet →Building voice agents that handle real conversations without sounding like they're reading a FAQ page. Think less "press 1 for support," more "I already handled it while you were on mute."
Updates coming soon. The agents are busy rehearsing.
Startup idea or just a good conversation — my inbox and WhatsApp are open.
