About the Team

Meet the hiring manager - Karan Sheth, Director, Engineering

I joined Nutanix in 2016 as a founding member of the Self Service team within Nutanix. Our team joined Nutanix as one of its very first acquisitions and has since grown into a critical Product and Platform organization of its own. I have been very fortunate to participate in many firsts for the company during my tenure at Nutanix and it continues to be so even now. I’m an IC turned Manager within Nutanix, my primary expertise being in leading and building Front End teams. In my time outside of work, I play video games, I play a few musical instruments and I like tasting different beers.
