JioMeet: from a meeting tool to a chat-first platform
ProblemMost of Reliance's workforce of around 600,000 collaborated over WhatsApp and phone calls. JioMeet only did video meetings, and features took weeks to reach users.
What I didI'm leading JioMeet's move to chat, audio and video in one product inside JioWorkspace. I merged five repositories (web, Electron, iOS, Android, backend) into one monorepo, moved the team to acceptance-test-driven development with full CI/CD, and put every feature behind a flag for phased rollout. I also set up the team's sprint cadence with product: a prioritised backlog, weekly grooming, sized estimates, spikes for unknowns, demos and retros.
What changedAbout 100,000 people across Reliance now use it. Features ship in 2 days, and with full context for AI tools every engineer delivers end to end across all clients and the backend.
