Hello,

I am Sowmya.  :)

I am glad my profile piqued your interest. I would like to get to know you and find fruitful collaborations. Feel free to use the contact form to tell me what you do and how you ended up here. 

I have been working in the IT sector since 2008. I started as a Systems Engineer at TCS building the frontend account opening application for Citibank - Headquarters in Long Island, US.

I have experience building, recruiting, managing and growing IT and RnD teams at different startups since 2012. 

Android and Hybrid Mobile apps are my forte. I am an expert and have built more than 32 apps on different Mobile platforms.

I founded a company at age 26 called Leillo, and ran it successfully by growing the user-base of  6000 users and 30% paying users in a span of three years without seed or VC funding. The company sunset due to the inability to solve the logistics problem in 2015.

I moved to Berlin in 2015 and had been working as a full-time Android Dev until 2020.  During the pandemic in 2020 I  started heading teams and helping companies in team management, stakeholder management, innovation management and client management. 

I also started my company Night Owl Labs a design and development studio in India in 2021 which services clients globally.  

In my free time I advocate for DEIB fairness and have been working on my community Coder Bee to help underrepresented folks to transform and sustain in IT since 2017.
