I have always been passionate about building things from scratch. Currently, building Crux - decision making AI engine for enterprises. Our goal is to help businesses take fast decisions and execute them through guided actions.

I graduated from IIT Bombay with a dual degree in Mechanical Engineering. During my stay at college, I had the oppourtunity to lead the 49th Edition of Mood Indigo, which is Asia's largest college cultural festival. My contributions were acknowledged with a Special Mention from the Dean of Student Affairs. (moodi.org)

During the covid-19 pandemic, just 5-6 days before JEE Mains, my friends and I realised that many students from rural india would struggle to reach their exam centre due to lack of public transportation. So, we decided to build Eduride overnight, a platform which connects students with volunteers and sponsors who are willing to support aspirants journey to exam centre. Our efforts got recognised by the Ministry of Education and received coverage in the major national newspaper (eduride.in)

I had the oppourtunity to intern at Johnson&Johnson, ITC and &Me. I have started my professional career as an Analytics Consultant at PwC, working with prominent US tech companies, before I decided to build my own venture.

I love playing sports and travelling to new places. I have developed interest in startups and businesses recently. I am always curious to know how different things work and operate.

Feel free to ping me or email at himank@getcrux.ai if you want to talk about our startup journey, what we are solving today or anything where I can be of any help.
