In Nova Global, we’re on an ambitious journey to reimagine the way renewable assets are managed. Critical to this will be our ability to build simple products through world-class engineering.

“My mind works like blades of a turbine; I see everything in terms of improvement. I get inspiration from everywhere, from evaluating processes to why not we try this. I have notebooks full of drawings and lines that become an idea, then a design, and later a product. Redesigning process is important to me because I know that improvement is the key. I am an advocate for innovation with simplicity," says Shiv, "I want to make something that looks awesome and simplifies our work".

Shiv tends to believe in the famous saying “The arrogance of success is to think that what you did yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow” and hence always stands by another famous saying “ The heart and soul of the company is creativity and innovation”

Shiv is pursuing a post graduate degree in Operations management while being a graduate in Electrical and Electronics engineering. Shiv has extensive experience in Operation Management, Project Management, Asset Management, Asset Performance Monitoring, Health Safety and Environment compliance, Contract Management, Team Leadership, Pricing and Cost Optimisation, to name a few, in the renewable energy domain. He has been instrumental in successfully setting up wind and solar farms when the industry was still in it’s nascent stages.
