Leading global cryptocurrency exchange Gemini has taken significant steps in its Indian expansion strategy by hiring Sachin Ranglani, a former senior vice-president of product management at fintech giant Paytm, as the head of operations for its Indian subsidiary.

Sachin Ranglani brings a wealth of experience from his tenure at Paytm, where he worked for approximately three years. Prior to his role at Paytm, Ranglani held positions at well-known tech companies, including Uber, Amazon, and Infosys. In September, he assumed the position of Vice President and India Head at Gemini, as indicated on his LinkedIn profile.

This strategic move by Gemini aligns with its earlier announcement of expanding its engineering center to India's Gurgaon city, located near the national capital, Delhi. The company's global chief technology officer, Pravjit Tiwana, revealed in September that the Indian engineering center would play a pivotal role in driving Gemini's growth in the years ahead.

Gemini's entry into the Indian market follows a $24 million investment aimed at strengthening its presence and operations in the country. With Sachin Ranglani at the helm of its Indian subsidiary, Gemini is poised to make significant strides in the Indian cryptocurrency space.

Gemini's Gurgaon branch, currently employing over 70 professionals, is set to expand significantly, with plans to exceed 100 staff members by the end of 2023. This figure is expected to grow to 200 by the close of 2024, according to Pravjit Tiwana, the company's global chief technology officer.

The exchange is actively seeking individuals for various roles, including software engineers, technical product managers, people operations, and talent acquisition staff, as well as finance,
