OTPless hires ex-BharatPe exec Geetanshu Singla as CTO
Identity and access management startup OTPless has appointed Geetanshu Singla, formerly of BharatPe, as its new chief technology officer. Inc42 reported the move on Tuesday.
Singla’s background includes leadership roles at BharatPe, where he helped scale the fintech platform’s engineering teams. His appointment comes as OTPless looks to expand its market presence. The company’s technology aims to reduce fraud while improving user experience by offering alternatives to traditional verification methods.
The hire reflects a broader trend in cybersecurity, where startups are racing to address vulnerabilities in legacy authentication approaches. OTPless competes with established players and newer entrants leveraging advanced verification techniques. While the company has not disclosed recent funding, its focus aligns with enterprise demand for seamless yet secure access controls.
Singla’s arrival follows a period of heightened activity in India’s cybersecurity sector, with startups securing funding and talent to tackle rising digital fraud. Whether OTPless can convert its technical edge into scalable adoption remains an open question, particularly as larger incumbents invest heavily in similar capabilities.
