Puspanjali Sarma

Puspanjali Sarma

I’ve spent 15+ years building data and AI systems—and what keeps me motivated is simple: turning ambitious ideas into dependable, production-ready capabilities that teams can trust.

Today, I’m a 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿 at 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗡𝗼𝘄, leading AI platform innovations across Machine Learning, Generative AI, and data engineering. I enjoy the end-to-end work: aligning to business outcomes, designing the architecture, and partnering with teams to ship high-quality solutions. I’ve worked across Fortune 500 enterprises and global startups, and I’ve learned one pattern repeatedly—AI doesn’t scale because of a great model; it scales because the system around it is designed and operated well.

That belief is what led me to write my published book, 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮—a practical playbook on building strong data foundations, responsible AI governance, and leadership habits that make AI durable, not fragile.

I was recognized among 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮’𝘀 𝗔𝗜𝗠 𝟰𝟬 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝟰𝟬 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀 (𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱), and I’ve helped deliver scalable AI frameworks across BFSI, Healthcare, Retail, and Manufacturing. Mentorship is also important to me—I support communities such as WEHUB and women-in-tech networks, and I write and speak about ethical AI and inclusive team building.

I’m a 𝗗𝗘𝗜 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 because inclusion isn’t a statement—it’s a daily leadership practice. I care about building teams where people feel safe to contribute, grow, and lead.

If you’d like to exchange ideas on scaling AI responsibly, building data platforms, or making GenAI work in real enterprise environments—reach out. I’m always happy to connect.

Kurtis Kemple

Kurtis Kemple

Kurtis Kemple is a formerly incarcerated tech leader whose extensive experience across software engineering, developer relations, platform experience, and agent design has made him a leading voice in the field. His work is unified by a relentless focus on clarity—whether that means making implicit system dynamics explicit through frameworks and programs, removing friction along the developer journey, or teaching developers, designers, and product managers how to build best-in-class agentic experiences.

Through his work at Integral Ad Science and Major League Soccer he built deep foundations in real-time analytics, ETL infrastructure, and delivering integrated experiences across digital and physical interfaces. Apollo GraphQL and AWS sharpened his understanding of developer-first product thinking, API infrastructure, and platform engineering at genuine scale. Slack and Salesforce brought it all together—putting him at the center of platform experience and agentic AI at the exact moment they became the most consequential challenges in the industry. Now he's channeling that accumulated expertise into writing as the author of Effective DevRel, releasing in May 2026 through Apress, with two more in the works—currently titled "Platform Engineering for AI" and "Agentic Experience Design."

Currently, Kurtis leads developer strategy for the Slack platform as Sr. Director of Developer Relations, where he focuses on agentic systems, experience design, and platform strategy. Outside of work, he pursues independent research at the intersection of mathematics and physical systems, street photography, riding his motorcycle where he shouldn't, and enjoying time with his family.
