The digital teammate era has arrived

Surojit Chatterjee is the Founder and CEO of Ema, where he is building a Universal AI Employee platform designed to enable AI employees to work alongside humans across every enterprise function, from HR and finance to customer support and sales. He founded Ema in 2023 with the conviction that the future of work will be shaped by AI systems that augment human capabilities rather than replace them.

Before founding Ema, Surojit spent more than two decades scaling some of the world’s most impactful technology products. As Chief Product Officer at Coinbase, he led the company through its landmark 2021 IPO and helped scale revenue and active users more than tenfold over three years. Earlier, as a Vice President at Google, he built Google Shopping and scaled Google Mobile Ads from inception into multi‑billion‑dollar businesses.

A builder and technologist at heart, Surojit holds 40 U.S. patents and has published peer‑reviewed research in AI and data systems. He earned an MBA from MIT Sloan, a B.Tech from IIT Kharagpur—where he was named a Distinguished Alumnus in 2024—and also holds a master’s degree in computer science. In addition to his operating roles, he is an active angel investor, with investments including Palantir, Udemy, Remote, and TrueLayer, and serves on the Board of Directors at Meesho, one of India’s fastest‑growing e‑commerce platforms.

Surojit also writes about AI, enterprise technology, and the future of work in his newsletter, Agents of Change by Ema, sharing insights at the intersection of product innovation, scale, and applied AI.
