Nikhil's story starts in India, runs through a Computer Science degree at Saint Mary's, and spans a decade of architecting enterprise software across healthcare and professional services. Years inside the corporate machine taught him two things: how to build systems that actually scale, and that he was never going to be just a programmer. In 2021 he founded DigiBenders to build a company on his own terms. Senior engineering, real strategy, no bureaucracy. Four years in, he leads architecture and AI automation for clients across Canada and the U.S., from custom apps to e-commerce platforms, and ships his own SaaS products including Linkroo. Outside of work, he travels, trains, trades the markets, and hikes with Zara.
