Our Founder

STRATEGY.
DIRECTION.
ACCOUNTABILITY.

Setu started Techmines after seeing too many strong businesses undermined by generic sites that looked fine in a deck and underperformed in the real market. He leads the studio's creative and strategic direction, and stays close to every engagement so work stays outcome-driven, not process-driven.

His responsibility is the through-line: from what the business needs a digital system to do, to how design, copy, and engineering execute on that answer. Clients work with him directly, without a rotating account layer, so decisions stay fast and honest.

  • Brand and product systems
  • Revenue-minded creative direction
  • Client strategy from first call to launch

THE FULL
BENCH.

Every person listed here works directly on client projects. No outsourcing, no freelancer farms. When we say senior-led, these are the seniors.

Management

Tisha Patel

Tisha Patel, General Manager at Techmines

Tisha Patel

General Manager

Tisha manages the day-to-day operations of the studio, ensuring every project runs with precision from kickoff to delivery. She coordinates across design, development, and client teams so projects stay on scope, on budget, and always moving forward.

She is the connective tissue of the studio: the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks and every client knows exactly where their project stands at any given moment.

  • Studio operations and team coordination
  • Project pipeline and resourcing
  • Client relationship management

Sagar Patel

Sagar Patel, Project Manager at Techmines

Sagar Patel

Project Manager

Sagar owns the delivery schedule for every engagement, from scoping to launch. He keeps timelines honest, flags risks early, and ensures decisions happen at the right moment rather than at the last minute.

His approach is direct: clear scope, clear milestones, and regular updates that contain useful information rather than vague status checks.

  • Delivery schedules and milestone tracking
  • Scope discipline and risk flagging
  • Client communication and stakeholder alignment

Bhumi Patel

Bhumi Patel, Sales Manager at Techmines

Bhumi Patel

Sales Manager

Bhumi leads new business at Techmines: qualifying inbound inquiries, leading scoping conversations with potential clients, and making sure the projects we take on are ones we can genuinely deliver results for.

She is direct about fit: she will tell you honestly if there is a mismatch before the contract, not after.

  • New business development and client qualification
  • Revenue pipeline and growth strategy
  • Proposal development and project scoping
Design & Development

Shivani Patel

Shivani Patel, Web Designer at Techmines

Shivani Patel

Web Designer

Shivani turns strategy into screens: layouts that make a brand's positioning unmistakable and every section earn its place. She thinks in systems, not one-off pages, so visual decisions scale cleanly across the whole site.

She works in close feedback loops with development, which means designs ship as specced and the gap between mockup and production stays minimal.

  • Conversion-first visual design and layout systems
  • Brand-consistent UI across all breakpoints
  • Component design and design-to-dev handoff

Krishna Patel

Krishna Patel, Web Developer at Techmines

Krishna Patel

Web Developer

Krishna builds from scratch: no page builders, no bloated themes, no fragile plugin stacks. His output is clean, fast HTML and CSS that holds up years after launch without maintenance becoming a second job.

He treats performance as a design constraint, not an afterthought, so every site ships with Core Web Vitals already green.

  • Custom front-end development, no page builders
  • Core Web Vitals and performance optimization
  • Clean, maintainable code built to last

Fenil Patel

Fenil Patel, Web Developer at Techmines

Fenil Patel

Web Developer

Fenil handles the technical complexity that makes a site live in the real world: CMS integrations, responsive breakpoints, edge cases, and the cross-device consistency that only surfaces when you test properly.

He stays in sync with design and QA throughout, not just at handoff, so the back-and-forth before launch stays manageable and nothing is a surprise on go-live day.

  • Front-end development and CMS integrations
  • Responsive builds and cross-device consistency
  • Technical implementation of complex UI patterns

Vansh Desai

Vansh Desai, QA Engineer at Techmines

Vansh Desai

QA Engineer

Vansh stress-tests every build before it ships: cross-browser, cross-device, keyboard navigation, and the edge cases that only surface when you use a site the way real users do.

He runs through a structured pre-launch checklist on every project and logs anything that would embarrass the studio if it made it to production.

  • Cross-browser and cross-device testing
  • Accessibility and keyboard navigation review
  • Pre-launch checklists and regression testing
Growth

Dhruti Patel

Dhruti Patel, Marketing Expert at Techmines

Dhruti Patel

Marketing Expert

Dhruti handles how Techmines shows up in the world beyond the website: content, social presence, and the ongoing conversation that keeps the studio visible to the right audience.

Her work is tied to positioning: everything published reflects the same voice and values as the client work, not a watered-down version optimized for social engagement.

  • Content strategy and brand messaging
  • Social media and digital presence
  • Campaign planning tied to business outcomes

Diksha Patel

Diksha Patel, SEO Expert at Techmines

Diksha Patel

SEO Expert

Diksha builds SEO into the information architecture from the first planning session, not as a post-launch add-on. She handles technical structure, content strategy, and the ongoing search hygiene that keeps sites visible without paying for every click.

Her metrics are commercial: qualified traffic and pipeline, not vanity rankings.

  • Technical SEO and site architecture
  • Content clusters tied to commercial intent
  • Search visibility and organic growth
Sales & Support

Nisha Patel

Nisha Patel, Sales Executive at Techmines

Nisha Patel

Sales Executive

Nisha manages early-stage conversations with prospective clients: understanding their goals, presenting how Techmines can help, and preparing proposals that are honest about scope and outcomes.

She works closely with the sales manager so what clients hear in a sales conversation reflects what the studio actually delivers.

  • Client outreach and early-stage conversations
  • Proposal development and project qualification
  • Pipeline development and follow-up

Hardik Patel

Hardik Patel, Customer Support at Techmines

Hardik Patel

Customer Support

Hardik is the first point of contact when clients need help after launch: fast responses, clear communication, and an understanding of each project's context so fixes happen without the client having to re-explain everything from scratch.

He tracks recurring issues and feeds them back into the build process so the same problem does not appear on two projects.

  • Post-launch support and issue resolution
  • Client communication and relationship continuity
  • Feedback routing back into the build process
