About

Meet Danyal.

Danyal designs the software at OpenDott, mostly billing, POS and management systems for retail, jewellery and wholesale businesses.

He didn’t start in software. He worked as Admin Manager and then HR Manager at SCS Retail, and later as COO at JewelGurujii. Having run counters, staff and month-end reports himself is why he asks so many questions about how a shop works before anything gets built.

He studied mathematics, then did an MCA with a focus on data science, and is a certified data scientist from IIT Guwahati.
