Hexaware Technologies Limited announced the appointment of Srinivasan Panchapakesan as President and Chief Platform Officer, effective immediately. This is a newly created role within the company.

Role Responsibilities

Srinivasan Panchapakesan will lead the development, integration, and scaling of Hexaware's platform portfolio, which includes:

  • Amaze® for cloud modernization
  • RapidX® for AI-accelerated software engineering
  • Tensai® for agentic IT operations
  • Agentverse™ for enterprise AI agents

Additionally, he will deepen the company's work with AI ecosystem partners across the AI-native software development lifecycle and oversee the roadmap, governance, and enterprise-scale adoption of Hexaware's unified platform portfolio.

Strategic Context

The appointment strengthens Hexaware's platform-led strategy at a time when enterprises want to move AI beyond isolated pilots into everyday production use. The platform portfolio is being consolidated under a single shared foundation of AI-native services that clients can adopt as one route to modernization. The platforms will work together as a connected system running on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud alongside hyperscaler services.

Executive Background

Srinivasan Panchapakesan brings more than 35 years of industry experience, including over 27 years at Hexaware across platform engineering, delivery, and complex program execution. He most recently served as Senior Corporate Vice President & Global Delivery Head for Digital & Software. He is one of the principal architects behind Amaze® and RapidX®, which anchor Hexaware's platform-led services strategy. He has led complex engagements across banking, insurance, life sciences, and manufacturing, backed by 200+ certifications and published thought leadership on platform strategy and AI-native delivery.

Management Commentary

R. Srikrishna, CEO and Executive Director of Hexaware, stated: "Platforms are central to how we will serve enterprise clients over the next decade, and this role reflects that priority. Srinivasan has the technical depth and the client understanding to lead it, and I have every confidence in what he will build."

Srinivasan Panchapakesan commented: "Every enterprise is asking the same question right now. How do we move from AI pilots to AI that is grounded in our own code, our own data, and our own decisions? When strong platforms grow in silos, their value fragments instead of reinforcing each other. Bringing them onto one foundation closes that gap for us and for our clients."
