THE FOUNDER

“Technology should be the asymmetric advantage of the nation that builds it — not a dependency on the one that sells it.”

Shubham founded Bortex with a single conviction: India’s border security cannot depend on imported black boxes. Trained as a Mechanical Engineer at IIT Bombay, he spent his formative years building hardware that operates at the intersection of extreme environments and autonomous intelligence — from femtosecond laser systems to terrain-adapting hexapod robots.
