Photography
A camera makes me slow down—to notice light, detail and the story inside an ordinary moment.
About Siva
I started by building software.
Then products.
Then teams.
Six years at AWS took that experience inside the growth journeys of more than 50 software companies across EMEA.
One career.
More than one
vantage point.
I’ve worked where product, architecture and go-to-market meet: deciding what to build, organising the team to deliver it and helping customers see its value.
That perspective comes from owning a product and engineering team at Syncron, operating critical services at DAZN, and advising software-company leaders at AWS.
Today, through Wolkn Minds, I’m applying that experience to SaaS and AI while staying close to implementation.

Beyond the work
There is more
to the story.
Technology is one way I make sense of the world. I also carry a camera, discover places through food, help build communities and keep learning across subjects that rarely fit into one box.
Travel & food
I understand places through the people I meet, the food they share and the everyday culture around it.
Community & service
Years of volunteering have taught me that useful systems matter most when they help people show up for one another.
Curiosity & reflection
Technology, music, spirituality and culture all feed the same habit: staying curious and looking again.
Leadership at scale
People
Build teams
Grew an engineering team from its first engineer to twelve while delivering a new cloud-native product.
