During his tenure, he led large-scale engineering teams and contributed to the development and scaling of core consumer products.
Rajeev also had an extensive career spanning over two decades at Microsoft, where he held several leadership roles including Corporate Vice President, Office 365. He was instrumental in building and scaling enterprise-grade platforms such as Office 365, Exchange, and SQL Server, contributing significantly to Microsoft’s cloud and productivity ecosystem.
He holds a Master of Science in Computer Science from The Ohio State University, further underpinning his strong technical foundation and leadership in engineering and product development.
With over 30 years of experience across leading global technology companies, Rajeev brings deep expertise in engineering leadership, product innovation, and scaling complex platforms, positioning him to drive the next phase of growth for Stripe’s RFA business.
