This week, we delve into Sandeep Thombre’s inspiring journey at Tata Elxsi.
“I joined Tata Elxsi in 2008, and since then, I’ve worked on significant projects and collaborated with insightful individuals, contributing to my professional growth”.
Early in my career, I played a pivotal role in establishing a Satellite Studio in Pune, where I initiated the product design team. Overcoming the challenges of launching and expanding the team was a formative experience, resulting in substantial growth and increased traction.
Transitioning to the Tata Elxsi London Design Studio marked another crucial phase. Under the leadership of Nick Talbot, the Global Design Head, I actively participated in talent acquisition, project leadership, and client management, primarily in Europe and the UK. Several projects stand out in my successful career, including the collaboration to design India’s first robotic arm. This project showcased the potential of design in driving product innovation and garnered international recognition.
Throughout my tenure, I faced challenges, including managing a large-scale research project across Europe and the UK during the COVID-19 pandemic. The successful execution of this project underscored the importance of meticulous planning and effective management. I’ve had the privilege of working with notable individuals who significantly influenced my professional development. Mr. Shyamsunder Bk, the Head of the Product Design team for IDV, has been both an expert and a friend, providing invaluable insights into client and technology management. Additionally, Mr. Nick Talbot has been a guiding force, broadening my perspectives on global design and innovation. Collaborating with colleagues like Jack, Charles, and Debadatta has enriched my professional expertise.
Tata Elxsi’s culture has fostered both personal and professional growth, offering opportunities for skill development and exploration beyond defined roles. For those embarking on their journey at Tata Elxsi, I recommend maintaining a learning mindset and pursuing areas of personal interest".
