Bio
Himanshu Gupta
GN can deliver in any tough situation and keep the team motivated. I worked under him for more than three years in a high growth startup and completed many projects at high velocity. One of the biggest challenges in the company was managing a tech team while dealing with a management which was largely non-technical which meant a lot of adhoc requests, rapidly changing priorities and huge expectations. In such an environment, he ensured that his team had a planned roadmap to focus on tasks which would have maximum impact in the long run. On critical projects, he would push his team to meet stringent timelines and work with it, never leaving his team to grind alone. This was one of the main reasons that his team could deliver project after project rapidly without burning out. Personally, he has been a good friend and mentor to me and advices me on career and life goals. It's been a pleasure to work for him.

Gaurav (popularly known as GN in Rivigo) is a wonderful manager and technologist. I have seen him remain calm and composed during many stressful situations. He has always helped and mentored me to achieve my growth aspirations. He is an empathetic person who not only understands but also supports during any difficult professional or personal situation. He leads by example and is extremely good at leading large teams. He has provided me with lots of valuable opportunities which helped me to evolve in my career. Gaurav has also been incredibly patient, supportive and was always quick to offer advice whenever I needed it. He has been a fantastic mentor and role model to look up to, and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him. I would love to work with him again in the future.
