Manjot Pahwa

Manjot’s career path has been a roller coaster ride and she brings deep experience as an operator of over a decade in her approach towards investing. A daughter of immigrants in India and the first girl in her community to have a job, she started her career as an engineer at Google in Silicon Valley.

Spending almost 7 years at Google, she kept on reinventing herself, from scaling services to billions as a Site Reliability Engineer to building infrastructure for consumer applications to heading product for one of the fastest growing open source projects in history. Google was also the place where she first met Hemant, who later on became a partner at Lightspeed.
