technical lead engineer · kozhikode, kerala, india
Manu Mathew is a Technical Lead Engineer at Newfold Digital. He works in platform engineering and software architecture, including AI-powered development, Kubernetes, OCI, and Perl and PHP.
I am a Technical Lead Engineer with 14+ years architecting, building, and scaling enterprise software platforms across web hosting, healthcare, investor relations, and SaaS. I progressed from software engineer to senior software engineer and then technical lead through platform ownership.
The recent work is platform modernization, mentoring a group of about 45 to 50 engineers, migrations from legacy hosting platforms to modern architectures, and cloud-native delivery with Kubernetes, OCI, automation, and AI-assisted development. In 2024 Newfold Digital recognised this with the Ace of Initiative award.
