MongoDB has appointed industry veteran Aamir Sait as Area Vice President for India, reinforcing its long-term commitment to the region and its growing role in the global AI and software development ecosystem.
Effective immediately, Aamir will lead MongoDB’s India business, focusing on scaling operations, strengthening customer and partner relationships, and driving AI-led innovation.
The appointment comes at a time when Indian enterprises are rapidly modernizing their technology stacks to keep pace with AI-driven applications.
MongoDB’s document-based data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is already widely adopted across sectors, and the company sees India as a key growth market in the global shift toward intelligent software development.
Aamir Sait Brings Decades of Experience and Entrepreneurial Insight
With over 25 years of leadership experience, Aamir Sait is well-positioned to lead MongoDB’s India strategy.
He previously played a pivotal role in scaling Amazon Web Services (AWS) in India—from market entry to maturity—building high-performing go-to-market teams and delivering strong outcomes for customers and partners.
His career also includes leadership roles at RSA and Dell.
More recently, Aamir founded a cybersecurity startup, gaining firsthand experience in technical innovation and entrepreneurial execution.
This blend of corporate and startup experience gives him a nuanced understanding of India’s evolving tech landscape.
“I’m privileged to work alongside my colleagues, customers, and partners in India, helping them drive transformative change,” Aamir said.
“Over the past year, I gained valuable insights as a founder and developed an even deeper appreciation for technology-driven innovation. I couldn’t be more excited to be building on the incredible foundation that MongoDB has established in India.”
India’s Developer Ecosystem and AI Momentum
India is home to one of the world’s largest developer communities and serves as a software hub for global enterprises.
More than 1.4 million developers in India list MongoDB as a skill on LinkedIn, reflecting strong adoption and growing relevance.
MongoDB offers a flexible document model along with integrated capabilities for search, analytics, and real-time data retrieval.
These features are helping Indian businesses remain competitive in the AI era.
Sachin Chawla, Area Vice President for MongoDB ASEAN & India, emphasized the scale of opportunity: “We’ve already had a big impact in India, but it’s still early in this generational shift to AI and how software is built.”
He added, Aamir’s role in scaling AWS and his entrepreneurial experience make him uniquely suited to help us capture that opportunity.”
