Priyanka Jindal
Operator & Engineer
As an experienced operator, product leader, and engineer, I find joy in applying technology to solve real business problems. I believe that the most impactful work happens only when the trio of talent, technology, and business come together - when any one is missing, it leads to sub-optimal outcomes.
I am currently spending time building AI Agents, and diving into the challenges of building and selling Coding and Software Engineering Agents, a domain I find deeply impactful.
I have a proven track record leading product management, software engineering, and enterprise GTM teams to build and scale managed cloud infrastructure services at Amazon Web Services (AWS) and developer tools at a Sequoia backed startup, all while based in San Francisco. During my time at AWS, I led the inference workloads roadmap for EC2 App Networking ($1B+ ARR portfolio) and built two 0-1 products to grow EC2 VPC Networking and IoT platforms ($200M+ ARR portfolio). I have deep expertise in technical product management, specifically defining new products, hybrid-cloud deployment model, usage-based pricing & packaging, and developing channel partnerships. I iterated painstakingly to define durable APIs and data model for new services, defined data governance system and UX for all Alexa wearables, built pricing and infra cost models for a dozen features/services, and led both internal and external partnerships to scale GTM. As a GM, I operated EC2 Networking and IoT services with tens of thousands of mid-market and enterprise customers, engaged with dozens of Strategic Fortune 1000 customers, and led product rituals to scale the product org and business KPIs. Before finding my way back to my engineering roots, I started my career as a quant developing algorithms and pricing at Nomura Securities and Lehman Brothers in Tokyo.
I earned my bachelors in Computer Science and Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, where I received the outstanding research award for my undergraduate thesis (built an FPGA accelerator to speed up a compute intensive application by 5x). To navigate across countries (Japan to USA), industries (quant trading to high-tech), function (finance to product development) and the US immigration system, I also earned an MBA from Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University.
