Senior Engineer
Uppili Srinivasan
I’ve always loved solving hard problems. Today, I build AI that helps the world’s largest companies understand how their processes actually run.
Where it all began
From my roots in Tiruchirapalli to the streets of Mumbai, my path has been defined by a love for technical problem-solving. This curiosity led me to IIT Bombay, where I earned my Master’s in Mechanical Engineering.
My life before Celonis
I moved to Germany to complete a second Master’s in Data Engineering and Analytics at the Technical University of Munich.
My first day at Celonis
I focused my early career on researching and developing data-driven simulations and process optimization strategies that translate complex engineering into clear, actionable insights.
My journey at Celonis
In June 2025, I made the move to Celonis. I’ve always been fascinated by the intersection of AI and data-driven optimization. Celonis provides the perfect ecosystem to apply my research background to solve the world's most intricate process challenges.
As for my team…
As a Senior AI Engineer in the Celonis Garage, I turn advanced AI research into real-world applications, building solutions that resolve our customers' most critical process challenges.
Outside my role
I work with an incredible team whose diverse skills constantly push me to learn and grow. It’s an environment where I’m always getting better just by being around them.
A piece of advice
Looking back, I’d tell myself that success in innovation is a marathon, not a sprint; stay resilient in the face of challenges and patient enough to let your hard work compound.
Outside of work
Outside of work, I enjoy reading, racquet sports, and traveling, as they each provide a different way to practice the same discipline and problem-solving I use as an engineer.
This is my Life At Celonis
It’s been a thrilling roller coaster of innovation so far, and I can already feel the countdown to a rocket ride.
