The people behind your strategy

Independent advice comes from people, not products. Meet the founder, core team and senior advisors behind every engagement.

Sivaprakash, Founder and Technology Strategist at Feinit

Sivaprakash

Founder & Technology Strategist

Sivaprakash is a technology strategist, advisor, and entrepreneur with 15+ years spanning enterprise platforms, research, systems integration, and digital transformation.

That experience includes more than a decade at a global investment bank, where security and compliance are never optional and vendor relationships, automation, engineering and strategy all have to stand up to scrutiny. Feinit brings that same discipline to your decisions: these are first-order questions, not an afterthought once a technology decision is made.

Through Feinit, he works with businesses as that independent layer of judgement between the problem and the solution. Vendor-neutral. No products. No commissions.

He is known for bringing structure to complex problems: turning them into clear execution plans, improving the processes underneath, and helping teams deliver with confidence.

That work spans AI and automation, infrastructure, and transformation across healthcare, manufacturing, professional services, and smart living. It sits in the space between business strategy, people, processes, and technology, where most technology decisions succeed or fail.

Strategy first. Tools second.

Her role brings the human and operational lens into how we shape solutions with clients.

Senior Advisors

Senior specialists involved across every Feinit engagement, so each recommendation is tested against deep infrastructure, security and risk judgement, not just strategy.

Andrew Donaldson, Senior Advisor, Technology Infrastructure, Operations & Security

Andrew Donaldson

Infrastructure, Operations & Security

Andrew brings more than 30 years across technology infrastructure, operations, security and technical leadership. He helps clients judge not just whether a solution can be implemented, but how it will fit their wider environment, how it will be operated and governed, and whether it will stay sustainable as the organisation grows.

Anand Sampath, Senior Advisor, Cybersecurity, Cloud & Information Risk

Anand Sampath

Cybersecurity, Cloud & Information Risk

Anand brings more than 20 years across cybersecurity, cloud security and technology risk. He helps clients bring security into technology decisions early, especially around cloud adoption, new platforms and digital transformation, so risk is weighed while choices are still open rather than patched on afterwards.

Senior Advisor

Andrew Donaldson

Technology Infrastructure, Operations & Security

Andrew brings more than 30 years of experience across technology infrastructure, service delivery, operations, security and technical leadership. His experience spans the full technology lifecycle, from engineering, platform and infrastructure design through implementation, operational support, governance, service improvement and technology strategy.

His expertise includes infrastructure architecture and planning, enterprise platforms, operating environments, networks, storage, application integration and deployment, service management, operational resilience and disaster recovery. He also brings substantial experience in security engineering, data security, technology governance, risk management and the development of technology standards and operating processes.

A key strength is his ability to look across the technology landscape rather than at individual systems in isolation. He has worked extensively at the intersection of business requirements, architecture, project delivery and operations: assessing technology requirements, shaping solution options, understanding infrastructure impact and establishing the processes and standards needed to support them effectively.

Areas of expertise

  • Infrastructure strategy, architecture and design
  • Technology operations and service delivery
  • Enterprise platforms and infrastructure lifecycle management
  • Service resilience, availability and disaster recovery
  • Security engineering and data security
  • Technology governance, standards and operating models
  • Vendor and technology partner engagement
  • Project assessment and solution shaping
  • Process development and continuous improvement
  • Team capability, operational maturity and technology planning

His earlier engineering experience in electronic manufacturing also gives him a practical appreciation of product development, testing, process improvement, quality standards and New Product Introduction.

What this means for clients

At Feinit, Andrew provides an experienced perspective on complex technology decisions, helping evaluate not only whether a solution can be implemented, but how it will fit into the wider technology environment, how it will be operated and governed, and how it can remain sustainable as the organisation evolves.

Senior Advisor

Anand Sampath

Cybersecurity, Cloud & Information Risk

Anand brings more than 20 years of experience across cybersecurity, cloud security, information security and technology risk. His experience spans technical security, security architecture, information risk, cybersecurity service delivery and the integration of security into increasingly complex, cloud-enabled technology environments.

His expertise covers cloud security architecture, information security, security controls, technology risk, security governance and the practical considerations involved in protecting information and technology platforms. He brings particular depth in understanding how security requirements need to evolve alongside cloud adoption, digital transformation and changing technology environments.

Anand combines technical security knowledge with an understanding of risk, governance and service delivery. This lets him look beyond individual security products or controls and consider the broader relationship between business requirements, technology architecture, information, risk and security.

Areas of expertise

  • Cybersecurity strategy and security architecture
  • Cloud security and cloud adoption
  • Information security
  • Information and technology risk
  • Security governance and controls
  • Security service delivery
  • Security within technology transformation
  • AWS and cloud environments
  • Technology risk assessment
  • Security integration across enterprise environments
  • Security implications of modern digital platforms

A particular strength of Anand’s perspective is connecting technology decisions with their security and risk implications, bringing security into the conversation early rather than treating it as a separate layer added after decisions have already been made.

What this means for clients

At Feinit, Anand provides specialist advisory perspective on cybersecurity, cloud and information risk. His contribution strengthens Feinit’s ability to evaluate technology choices from a security and risk perspective, particularly when clients are considering cloud adoption, new platforms, digital transformation or changes to their existing technology environment.

Developers & Interns

Our in-house developers and interns work alongside the core team on every engagement, handling build, implementation and testing. They are the hands-on capacity that turns strategy into action.

Specialist Partners

When a project touches marketing, branding or a specific tool, we bring in specialist partners for exactly that piece, only when it is needed, and keep their work integrated into the same technology strategy rather than handed off as a separate project.
