Arvind Parthiban is the kind of founder who flies blimps over the Salesforce Tower just to make a point.
At SuperOps, he's building an AI-powered operating system for modern IT management, and is approaching AI the way he approaches everything: build things that actually work, then make them impossible to ignore. Case in point: he launched the world's first AI agent marketplace with a drone show in Las Vegas.
This isn't his first rodeo. Before SuperOps, Arvind co-founded Zarget, a website analytics platform that Freshworks acquired, where he went on to lead marketing. Before that, he spent nine years at Zoho, starting as a pre-sales engineer and evolving into a marketer.
His philosophy is simple: build, don't theorize.
His marketing playbook reads like a greatest hits album of bold moves—guerrilla campaigns, drone shows, and a general disregard for doing things the "normal" way. He dreams with whimsy, builds with heart, and pursues the future with the kind of infectious drive that makes people want to come along for the ride. (The blimp thing makes more sense now, doesn't it?).
He brings this same energy to building the ecosystem itself. As co-chair of the US Council at SaaSBoomi, he's helping strengthen the next generation of ambitious founders, one bold bet at a time.
He grew up in Hosur
CallsChennai home
and currently lives inSan Francisco
He's dad to a preteen, he’s a Chelsea fanatic, a passionate traveler, and a wannabe cook.
