Sridhar Mamella
Senior Technology, AI & Digital Transformation Leader
I help enterprises build secure, scalable and AI-ready technology platforms across cloud, data, security, identity and digital operations.
With leadership experience at Porsche, OverTake and EnBW, I work at the intersection of technology strategy, enterprise architecture, product leadership and business transformation — especially in complex, regulated and high-reliability environments.
Builder of Streamzilla — Porsche’s central data streaming platform.
About
From Mumbai to Stuttgart — building the platforms behind the products.
I grew up in Mumbai with a fascination for computers and fast cars, and left home at 19 to study computer engineering in London. After several years in the UK data industry, I moved to Germany — deliberately choosing German-speaking teams and learning the language at night school — and built my career inside automotive, media, energy and critical-infrastructure IT.
At Porsche AG, I built and led Streamzilla — the company’s central data streaming platform — from a two-person effort into mission-critical infrastructure used across product teams. Since then, my work has spanned data platforms, cloud modernization, data privacy, AI adoption, security, identity and enterprise architecture.
My strength is connecting strategy with delivery — aligning business goals, technical architecture and teams around outcomes that matter. I completed the Oxford Executive Leadership Programme at Saïd Business School in 2025.

How I can help
Concrete engagements, concrete outcomes.
ENGAGEMENT / 01
AI Readiness & Governance Sprint
I help you find out where AI actually creates value in your organization — and what your data, platforms and governance need so adoption scales instead of stalling. Outcome: a prioritized AI roadmap and a governance setup that stands up to regulators and auditors.
ENGAGEMENT / 02
Platform & Architecture Review
I assess your cloud, data, identity and security landscape independently — the way I built and ran these platforms at Porsche and EnBW. Outcome: a clear picture of what holds up, what doesn’t, and a modernization roadmap your teams can actually execute.
ENGAGEMENT / 03
Technology Due Diligence & Expert Calls
For investors and executives: I evaluate a target’s technology, architecture and team — or join a 60-minute expert call on data platforms, streaming, IAM or critical-infrastructure IT. Outcome: a grounded verdict in days, not months.
Let’s connect.
