Rohan Gupta

Co-founder and chief technology officer

Rohan Gupta is a co-founder of smallcase and has served as chief technology officer. He studied at IIT Kharagpur, worked in technology at Goldman Sachs India, and joined Vasanth Kamath and Anugrah Shrivastava to build the thematic investing platform launched in 2016.

Goldman Sachs to smallcase

Forbes India's 30 Under 30 profile described him as the tech expert at Goldman Sachs India whom Kamath and Shrivastava recruited when they decided to build their own product. His engineering brief covered the brokerage integrations and portfolio machinery that let users buy a basket of stocks or ETFs in one action through partner brokers.

Technology leadership

As CTO he has led the systems behind smallcase's model portfolios and user-built collections as the Bengaluru company expanded partnerships with Zerodha, Axis, HDFC Securities, and Edelweiss. That work turned the co-founders' thematic investing idea into software that retail investors could use inside existing brokerage accounts.
