SANTA CLARA, Calif. - TelAve -- When Utkarsh Lubal — affectionately called "Ubii" by his colleagues — walked away from offers at some of the world's most prestigious corporations, the industry took notice. Today, DriveYo confirms what those who know him already suspected: Ubii was never chasing a title or a salary. He was waiting for a mission worth fighting for.

That mission is DriveYo.

The Engineer Who Cannot Stop Building

Few engineers carry a portfolio as diverse and decorated as Utkarsh Lubal. A winner of an international blockchain hackathon, a former senior software engineer at CapGemini, and a scholar of exceptional academic distinction, Ubii has demonstrated time and again that he operates at a level well above the ordinary.

Yet what defines him most is not what he has won — it is what he has built and given away for free.

On his own time, without compensation, Utkarsh has independently developed and released over 150 open-source React and React Native libraries used by developers across the globe. He has also created and distributed a wide range of cybersecurity tools — freely available to individuals and organizations who need protection but lack the resources to build it themselves. In a world where talent is routinely monetized, Ubii has consistently chosen contribution over compensation.

Turning Down the World to Change It

Multiple Fortune 500 companies and multinational corporations came calling. Each offer was considered. Each was declined. The reason was never complicated — Utkarsh simply refused to spend his career building something that did not matter to real people.

DriveYo's founder saw that immediately.

"Ubii, you join our team and we will change the way the auto industry works — not just in the USA, but the entire world." — Suraj Viswanathan, Founder and CEO, DriveYo

Ubii joined.

His previous work building enterprise-grade cybersecurity solutions from the ground up further positions him as one of the most complete security and AI engineers of his generation — and a critical asset to DriveYo's infrastructure as the platform scales nationally.

Discipline as a Way of Life

Those who work alongside Utkarsh will tell you the same thing: he brings everything he has to everything he does. Outside of engineering and research, he is a dedicated fitness enthusiast — someone who understands that sustained excellence requires physical and mental discipline in equal measure. That philosophy runs through everything he builds.

A Team That Means Business

DriveYo is not assembling a workforce. It is assembling a movement. With Utkarsh Lubal now part of the core team, the company sends an unambiguous signal to the automotive industry: the people building DriveYo chose this on purpose — and they are just getting started.
