Engineering Leader

Deepa
Gupta

I lead engineering efforts in high-stakes environments — where systems must scale under real-world constraints, often before the full problem is even defined.

Most of the work starts in undefined spaces — where the problem isn't fully known and the constraints only emerge through execution.

The role is to make those systems legible early, shape direction, and build them into systems that can scale under real-world constraints.

Abridge
Senior Engineering Manager — Leading AI clinical documentation systems in a federal environment → $15M VA deployment across dual EHR systems under FedRAMP constraints
Blend Labs
Group Engineering Manager — Rebuilt a single-product mortgage system into a configurable platform → scaled revenue from $8.5M to $25M in one year across partners like Wells Fargo and PNC
Salesforce (Quip)
Senior Director of Engineering — Built real-time sync platform → drove 171% ACV growth and added $13M+ quarterly revenue
Salesforce
Senior Engineering Leader — Led first air-gapped Salesforce deployment inside a SCIF → enabled $450M+ federal opportunity

The common thread: systems that don't tolerate failure — and organizations that need to scale anyway.
