BIO
CEO at QualGent, ex-Googler in AI, XR and Android Shivam is a customer-obsessed engineer who spent 5 years at Google building AI products, visual interfaces, and frameworks. He led Android XR’s 3D system UI, shipping it in one-fifth the time it took Apple to launch VisionOS, and built the team’s most-used tool - a C++ simulator that 10x-ed developer velocity. Recognized as the fastest executor on the team, he left to fix the biggest bottleneck he faced firsthand: mobile QA.
