Karthik S.
Founder and CEO
Karthik S. is the Founder and CEO of Qualiber, bringing nearly two decades of experience in quality engineering, technical program management, and software delivery. With a career spanning Amazon and Apple, he combines deep technical expertise with experience leading complex, cross-functional programs at scale.
Prior to founding Qualiber, Karthik led end-to-end quality and release strategy for Amazon’s reading platforms, serving more than 50 million users. During his four years at Amazon, he developed a GenAI-powered testing accelerator that reduced execution time by 50% and delivered $1.2 million in annual run-rate savings. He also took GenAI and agentic AI initiatives from pilot through production adoption and served as an Amazon Bar Raiser, contributing to hiring standards across the organisation.
Previously, Karthik directed quality engineering and testing for Apple News, where his work included improving publisher-payout data accuracy and developing machine-learning-driven approaches to detect anomalies across analytics systems.
Karthik’s experience across large-scale technology environments has reinforced a central principle behind his work: successful software delivery depends not only on technical capability, but also on effective coordination and evidence-based decision-making. He brings this perspective to Qualiber, where he is building an AI-powered decision platform designed to give engineering teams clearer, evidence-based insight into release readiness.
Karthik holds an Executive MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering from Anna University Chennai.
