Twitter on Tuesday announced to appoint Apurva Dalal as Director of
Engineering in India, as the micro-blogging platform expands its
engineering team in the country, a priority market and one of its
fastest growing markets globally.
Dalal has more than two decades
of engineering experience spanning global organisations such as Uber,
Google, and eBay, who last served as the engineering site lead for Uber
Bengaluru.
"Starting today, Apurva will become the senior-most
member of the engineering team in the country and will be responsible
for strengthening our engineering capacity as well as our offerings for
local and global audiences," Nick Caldwell, Vice President of
Engineering, Twitter, said in a statement.
Twitter said that
expanding the team in India aligns with its overall belief that "having
more employees at Twitter, living and working in places that are
representative of all perspectives and cultures, and sharing local
context about these conversations will help us build a better service
and company".
Outside of the US, Twitter has dedicated
engineering teams in multiple markets including London, Toronto,
Singapore and Bengaluru.
The Twitter engineering team in
Bengaluru, which has expanded rapidly over the past two years, will
continue to focus on building more daily utility for new and existing
audiences, with capabilities ranging from product development, research
and design as well as data science and machine learning.
"The
focus on developing engineering capabilities in India comes as part of
our broader goal to increase our development velocity, including
building a strong foundation for our product. This is what the core team
will be focused on based out of Bengaluru," the company noted.
