The Humans Behind Your Cloud
CloudTry's team is made up of certified AWS practitioners, DevOps engineers, and cloud architects who've collectively solved hundreds of real-world cloud challenges. We're not a bench of generalists; every person on our team has a specific area of cloud expertise and a track record of solving hard problems with it.
Pankaj Jakhar
Pankaj leads CloudTry's vision to make enterprise-grade cloud accessible to every growing business. With 10+ years of experience in AWS and multi-cloud environments, he has led cloud strategy, architecture, and migration engagements for businesses ranging from early-stage startups to mid-market enterprises.
Before founding CloudTry, Pankaj served as an AWS Solutions Architect, where he developed deep expertise in cloud economics, infrastructure design, and DevOps transformation. He holds multiple AWS certifications and is an active member of the AWS Partner Network.
His vision for CloudTry is built on a simple belief: that great cloud outcomes are about partnership and accountability, not just technical execution.
Gaurav Berry
Gaurav leads CloudTry's business growth, partnerships, and go-to-market strategy, bringing a sharp commercial instinct and a deep understanding of what it takes to scale a cloud business in India's competitive technology market.
With experience spanning E2E Networks, ACE Cloud and Builder.ai, Gaurav has spent his career in cloud consulting and advisory roles, helping businesses navigate cloud adoption, evaluate technology investments, and make decisions that drive measurable outcomes. He holds an MBA and brings both the strategic perspective and the on-the-ground experience of someone who has sat across the table from cloud customers at every stage of their journey.
His belief at CloudTry is straightforward: business growth and customer success are the same thing. When clients scale smarter, CloudTry grows with them.
Bibek Gupta
Bibek leads CloudTry's partner ecosystem and strategic alliances, bringing a rare combination of AWS insider knowledge and hands-on experience building high-value partnerships that deliver real business outcomes.
Before joining Cloudtry, Bibek was at Amazon Web Services, where he played a pivotal role in enabling SMB customers to drive digital transformation and accelerating cloud adoption at scale. His work at AWS gave him a deep understanding of how the partner ecosystem operates from the inside - the programmes, the priorities, and the pathways that create genuine commercial advantage for AWS partners and their customers.
At CloudTry, Bibek focuses on expanding the partner ecosystem, strengthening strategic collaborations, and building the alliances that accelerate growth, a critical pillar as CloudTry continues scaling its cloud consulting and partnerships practice.

Chanchal leads CloudTry's people function - building the culture, processes, and operational foundations that allow a fast-growing organisation to scale without losing what makes it work.
With experience at Cogent and Tech Mahindra in operations and HR roles, and an MBA to her credit, Chanchal brings both the process rigour and the people-first mindset that a company at CloudTry's stage needs. Her background spans talent operations, HR systems, and the day-to-day organisational work that keeps teams aligned, motivated, and growing in the right direction.
Her focus at CloudTry is on building a workplace where exceptional people do their best work and where the culture keeps pace with the ambition.
Prashant Jakhar
Prashant leads CloudTry's marketing strategy, bringing over a decade of B2B marketing experience from some of India's most recognised technology organisations to the work of building CloudTry's brand and demand generation engine.
Before joining CloudTry, Prashant held product marketing and brand roles at HCLSoftware, Tata Elxsi, and Infosys Finacle, where he built go-to-market strategies for enterprise technology products, shaped brand positioning in competitive markets, and enabled sales teams to communicate complex technology value clearly and convincingly. His experience spans the full marketing stack, from strategic narrative to demand generation to founder-led sales enablement.
At CloudTry, Prashant is building the market presence that matches the quality of what the team delivers, shaping CloudTry's narrative across AWS, cloud consulting, and AI, and ensuring the brand reflects the ambition behind it.
