Hi, I'm Barnik πŸ‘‹
I build AI products at the enterprise frontier. At play, I'm a scuba diver.

About

I grew up watching my dad design computers β€” it lit a lifelong obsession with understanding and building software. That curiosity took me through engineering, hackathons, and eventually into product management at some of the most exciting early-stage B2B AI startups in India and the Middle East.

Over the last 7 years, I've worked at the frontier of enterprise AI β€” scaling Voice Contact Center AI from zero to $1.5M ARR and 5 million monthly conversations, and now at Omnissa, applying AI to End User Computing β€” turning how enterprises manage, secure, and support their digital workforce from a reactive IT burden into something intelligent and self-healing. I operate at the intersection of strategy and execution β€” I'm here to ship real value, not manage roadmaps.

Hackathons

I like building things

During my time in university, I attended multiple hackathons. People from around the country would come together and build incredible things in 2–3 days. It was eye-opening to see the endless possibilities brought to life by a group of motivated and passionate individuals.
