Jatin Aghara

Director - Sutherland | IIM Lucknow

I love to dig into customer problems and solve them with modern technology. I create, scale and optimize business portfolios that matter. To accomplish this, I focus on delivering key outcomes, building amazing teams and quickly adapting to new learnings.

I have enjoyed many executive positions throughout my career in Strategy, Business Development, Consultative Sales, Product Development, Product Marketing, and Project Management. My personal, and professional experiences, and MBA have taught me the following about myself:

I can successfully scale up businesses from $50M to $1B in revenue.
• I put the customer at the center of all that I do.
• I excel at the execution of big ideas with given constraints
• My gut instinct is good but I seek data for my decisions

I can align, lead and grow world-class Product/Project teams from 10 to 100 people.
• I love to win, but helping the team win gives me greater joy
• I speak tech and execute
• I tell great narratives that motivate
• The buck always stops with me

I educate, refine and drive myself to be a better person
• I am constantly learning because I never settle
• I stay calm when faced with adversity
• I focus on making high-quality decisions

I enjoy meeting new people and hearing new perspectives. I love photography, stand-up comedy, and theatre. I have tried my hands at a few open mics, played small roles on stage in regional dramas, and sold my clicks at a couple of photo exhibitions across the country. Reach out if you want to talk to me about emerging tech, Industry trends, F1, or cricket.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
