Sagar Bose
Background
I'm a BITS Pilani graduate and technologist with over 12 years of experience building system-level hardware and embedded platforms. I've led engineering efforts at GreyOrange Robotics, Ola Electric, Sun Mobility, and Enphase Energy —architecting complex systems including EV chargers, battery-swapping platforms, and robotics.
Current Focus
At Solterra, as one of the co-founders, I lead all things Tech and Product Design and Development, creating robust, scalable EV infrastructure. My work spans charger architecture, power electronics, embedded firmware, and manufacturing—bridging the gap between lab-grade engineering and on-ground reality.
Philosophy & Interests
I believe good engineering starts with first principles but succeeds only when it survives the real world. I favor iterative execution over perfect theory—optimizing for reliability, serviceability, and manufacturing scale rather than just datasheet elegance.
Outside of engineering, I'm deeply interested in radio-control aircraft and aviation. Building and piloting RC planes grounds my understanding of aerodynamics and real-time control systems in immediate, unforgiving reality.

Heuristic #1: When in doubt, choose the adventure.
Heuristic #2: Ask what is right here—not what is comfortable.
Heuristic #3: To make an outcome inevitable, act as fully as you can now.
Heuristic #4: If it's popular and widely agreed upon, keep walking.
Heuristic #5: Plans can never keep up with changes. —act, learn, adjust.
