As India celebrates National Technology Day on May 11, we at WBD want to take the moment to reflect on how our amazing technologists in India contribute to this organization with their energy, passion, and one-team mindset.

First up is Quality Assurance Manager Trupti Gharat.

At Warner Bros. Discovery, we’re proud to have so many outstanding employees who exemplify what it means to work as one team. Today’s Employee Spotlight features Trupti Gharat, Quality Assurance Manager II on the GQA team. With over 11 years of experience on Over-The-Top (OTT) media , Trupti chose to work at WBD for the opportunity to learn from her colleagues and contribute her own wealth of knowledge.

Trupti has now been with WBD for over three years and is currently working with the HBOMax team. Her role is to oversee the completion of all handover requirements before any platform releases go live, ensuring end-to-end product delivery with no issues. Working at WBD has been a learning experience, Trupti says, as she is surrounded by new technologies and skill sets every day. "If you are passionate about learning new things and growing,” Trupti says, “then WBD is the place for you."

One of the things Trupti values the most about her job at WBD is the "one team" approach. She and her colleagues trust one another, succeed together, and grow together – even when they’re not in the same room. “During the pandemic, our team would have a bi-weekly zoom calls set aside to play games together, like treasure hunts at home,” Trupti explains. “It was a great opportunity to bond, like a mental refreshment – interacting with people, feeling less alone."

Outside of work, Trupti is a new mom! It’s an incredibly exciting time, and one where WBD’s “one team” approach to work has been crucial. Trupti tells us her team back at the office has been hugely supportive and encouraging. "It's going really smoothly," she says. If she’s preparing food for her new baby, for example, her team members will cover what she needs done, or reschedule a meeting if it doesn’t work best for her schedule. It’s a prime example of WBD employees supporting one another on their life journeys, be it in a personal or professional endeavor.

At WBD, we believe that it takes great people working together as one team in order for us to reach our goals, both in the office and at home. Join us and be a part of this “one team” – we can’t wait to meet you!
