— Leadership

Built by the people
who will end fraud.

Verix was co-founded by Aryan Bhardwaj and Anirudh Jaiswal — with Marcelo Long, Baibhav Das, Shashwat Choudhary, Rahul Sundhar, and Joshua Carson — to build the biometric credential that replaces cards at the point of sale and eliminates both card fraud and chargeback fraud.

— The team

Who is behind Verix?

Seven operators and engineers who saw the same problem from different angles: the card is the attack surface. Remove the card, and both fraud vectors collapse.

  • Aryan Bhardwaj

    CEO & Co-Founder

    Aryan leads Verix's strategy and execution across product, operations, and growth. He built Verix on a single conviction: physical commerce deserves the same fraud immunity as digital identity. Under his leadership, Verix is deploying biometric credential infrastructure at scale across retail, gaming, and hospitality.

  • Marcelo Long

    CMO & Founder

    Marcelo drives market positioning and operator adoption for Verix. He translates the complexity of biometric infrastructure into clear operator value — faster throughput, zero chargebacks, and verifiable compliance. His work ensures every operator understands exactly what they're getting before they sign.

  • Baibhav Das

    COO & Founder

    Baibhav runs the operational engine behind Verix: deployment pipelines, operator onboarding, and cross-vertical partnerships. His background in high-throughput operations means Verix scales without losing precision — whether that's 10 terminals or 10,000.

  • Anirudh Jaiswal

    CPTO & Co-Founder

    Anirudh architects the biometric matching pipeline at the core of Verix — 380 ms end-to-end, 1-in-1,000,000 false acceptance rate, ISO 30107, NIST FRVT, and FIDO2 compliant. He leads the engineering team building the credential layer that replaces physical cards at the point of sale.

  • Shashwat Choudhary

    President, Technology

    Shashwat oversees Verix's commercial and strategic direction — from pilot deployments to investor relations and market expansion. He works across every vertical Verix enters, ensuring the business scales with the same precision as the technology.

  • Rahul Sundhar

    President, Partnership Alliances

    Rahul drives strategic alliances and partnership ecosystems across Verix’s target verticals — from payments processors and terminal manufacturers to enterprise retail and hospitality groups. His work builds the commercial infrastructure that enables Verix to scale through channel and co-go-to-market partnerships.

  • Joshua Carson

    CSO

    Joshua leads Verix's security posture — from liveness detection and anti-spoofing protocols to PCI DSS and GDPR+BIPA compliance frameworks. He ensures every credential Verix issues and every transaction it authorizes meets the highest global security standards.

— Board members

Strategic advisors.

Industry veterans from payments and global retail who guide Verix's commercial strategy and international expansion.

  • Bibek Das

    Board Member

    VisaSenior Director, Product Management, Strategy & Commercialization

    Bibek brings over 25 years of product leadership at Visa, where he has driven strategy and commercialization across payment infrastructure at global scale. His background spans dispute resolution product development and go-to-market execution in payments — making him a naturally positioned advisor as Verix scales its credential layer across enterprise operators.

  • Arun Bhardwaj

    Board Member

    Victoria’s Secret & CoPresident, International

    Arun leads international operations at Victoria’s Secret & Co., with nearly three decades of retail expansion experience across Asia Pacific — including senior roles at Levi Strauss & Co. and Starbucks Coffee Company. His expertise in scaling consumer-facing retail operations across global markets brings strategic depth to Verix as the company pursues enterprise deployment across hospitality, fashion, and multi-location retail verticals.
