The Story

What I did here

2022 - 2023

Took omnichannel commerce and supply chain live across 1,000+ stores for JioMart's Smart Bazaar, scaling it past ₹100Cr in monthly GMV. Built the traceability and orchestration layer underneath — crate-level lifecycle tracking, a real-time engine processing store and operational data feeds — then pushed further into AI: a procurement and allocation platform handling 500+ MT/day of supply, and an AI-driven sorting and grading system to cut wastage. Partnered directly with Supply Chain, Procurement, Commercial, and Operations leadership to turn fragmented processes into standardized, technology-enabled workflows.
