Mumbai: Altimetrik, an AI-first data and digital engineering company, has announced the appointment of Gautam Samanta as its Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). A veteran technology leader with over three decades of experience, Gautam joins Altimetrik to accelerate its global growth strategy and reinforce its position as an AI-first orchestrator enabling enterprises to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital ecosystem. He will report directly to Raj Sundaresan, Chief Executive Officer of Altimetrik.
This strategic appointment follows Altimetrik’s recent announcement of a definitive agreement to acquire SLK Software, a global technology services firm specializing in AI, intelligent automation, and analytics. The merger is expected to deliver enhanced scale, broader market reach, and deeper industry capabilities as Altimetrik moves toward its goal of achieving $1 billion in annual revenue.
In his new role, Gautam will lead Altimetrik’s global commercial and go-to-market strategy, focusing on expanding client and partner engagement, strengthening execution discipline, and driving enterprise AI adoption across industries and geographies.
“Gautam’s appointment marks an important milestone in Altimetrik’s growth journey,” said Raj Sundaresan, Chief Executive Officer of Altimetrik. “This year, we launched our AI-First brand, opened the ALTI AI Adoption Lab™, and introduced DomainForge.ai to help clients accelerate enterprise-grade AI deployment. Combined with our expanded ecosystem partnerships with OpenAI, AWS, Salesforce, Azure, Snowflake, and Databricks, and our definitive agreement to acquire SLK Software, we have built strong momentum across every dimension of our business. Gautam’s global experience and commercial discipline will help us channel that momentum into sharper execution, deeper client value, and measurable impact across markets.”
Gautam brings extensive experience in scaling technology businesses through emerging tech and domain-driven growth. Most recently, as President and Executive Director at Coforge, he helped transform the company into one of the fastest-growing global technology services firms, building the Banking and Financial Services vertical into a US$500 million business, the company’s largest. He has also held senior leadership roles at Infosys and Capgemini, where he led strategic growth and vertical expansion initiatives.
“Altimetrik’s AI-First vision strongly resonates with my belief in the transformative potential of AI and data,” said Gautam Samanta. “Its engineering-first culture, agility, and platform-led approach position it as a true catalyst for enterprise growth. I am excited to help shape the company’s next chapter — driving sharper execution, customer value, and growth at scale.”
Gautam holds a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta.
