This spring, WOC Online announced the Women of Color magazine's list of the top 40 under 40 in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) for 2024.
Every year, Women of Color magazine compiles a list of top STEM professionals and Technology All-Star and Rising Star award winners who are trailblazers within their industry and are making a long-lasting impact.
Bhavana Chandrashekhar, a senior software development manager with Amazon Technology Innovation, is one of the honorees in the 40 under 40 list.
At Amazon Technology Innovation, Chandrashekhar leads a team of 35 employees working on one of Amazon Robotics' most critical products.
She has significantly contributed to the company's computer vision, robotics, and machine learning during her eight years at Amazon.
In her previous role, Chandrashekhar delivered critical software features that supported the world's most extensive robotic picking system.
Her strong leadership helped her team surpass its 2022 stretch goal, resulting in a surge of holiday presents ordered in December.
Chandrashekhar's team has achieved over 25 percent diversity, equity, and inclusion representation in underrepresented fields.
