Deepak Bhatia

Technology executive with deep experience at the intersection of AI, operations, supply chain, and enterprise transformation.Currently serving as CTO/SVP at The Hershey Company after 12 years at Amazon, where I led large-scale supply chain optimization and automated decision-making systems powering inventory, fulfillment, forecasting, and logistics globally.My career has spanned automotive, semiconductor equipment manufacturing, e-commerce, and consumer packaged goods — experiences that have shaped a broad, multidisciplinary approach to technology, operations, engineering, and business transformation.I enjoy building high-caliber technical organizations that combine engineering, science, product management, and business ownership to solve hard operational problems at scale. I’m particularly passionate about large-scale decision automation, optimization, AI-driven execution, and building systems that translate technology innovation into measurable operational and business outcomes.My focus has consistently been on measurable impact: faster decisions, better execution, improved customer experience, stronger resilience, and durable long-term business value.
