OP, a leading technology consulting firm formerly known as OrangePeople, is pleased to announce the appointment of Vijay Chemuturi as Chief Technology Officer. With more than three decades of industry experience, Mr. Chemuturi’s deep expertise in AI-driven transformation will be instrumental in advancing OP’s mission to harness cutting-edge innovation and deliver breakthrough solutions for its clients.
Previously Executive Director and Chief Technology Strategist at Toyota, Mr. Chemuturi played a pivotal role in deploying AI to drive enterprise-wide transformation across manufacturing, R&D, supply chain, customer experience, and product quality functions. He launched Toyota’s first connected platform—later branded as Toyota Connected—and built its first data science practice and big data platforms. Under his leadership, Toyota developed Customer360, Quality360 and Loyalty Engagement Opportunity applications, unlocking insights and driving operational excellence.
Mr. Chemuturi also led the modernization of Toyota’s 45-year-old mainframe, partnering with AWS to reimagine legacy processes on modern, multicloud architectures. As the Chief architect of Toyota’s integrated technology strategy, he helped shape its approach to data, cloud, generative AI, and enterprise modernization. His achievements have earned him three first-prize wins at Toyota’s Global Hackathon and Innovation Fair competitions.
At OP, Mr. Chemuturi’s leadership will be central to shaping the firm’s next phase of growth, particularly in expanding its AI-first service model. His vision and experience will directly influence the advancement of OP’s proprietary AI offerings, including OranGPT, a next-generation enterprise architecture platform, and TruthIn.ai, an AI-powered consumer transparency solution, among other offerings.

“AI isn’t just a helpful tool—it’s a true catalyst for transformation. OP is uniquely positioned to harness it in ways that redefine enterprise efficiency, agility, and value creation,” said Vijay Chemuturi, CTO of OP. “I’m excited to help shape and scale OP’s human-led, AI-driven strategies that continue delivering breakthrough results for our clients.”
Mr. Chemuturi’s appointment is part of a broader strategic expansion of OP’s leadership team, following the recent additions of Tom Campisi as VP of Client Success in January and Svetlana Patrusheva as VP of Finance in early March. Collectively, these leaders bring over 45 years of combined experience, strengthening OP’s capabilities and positioning it for continued growth in an evolving technology landscape.
These leadership changes come on the heels of OP’s recent brand refresh, which introduced a new name, visual identity, and website. Beyond these external updates, the company is making significant investments in its internal infrastructure and talent—signaling a strong commitment to scaling its impact through innovation and execution.
“I’m thrilled to welcome Vijay Chemuturi as OP’s Chief Technology Officer,” said OP Founder and CEO Raghav Putrevu. “His expertise in AI-driven transformation and enterprise innovation is unmatched, and I’m confident his leadership will accelerate our ability to deliver radical value and next-level results. Alongside our other key leadership additions, Vijay’s appointment marks a defining moment as we scale our AI, cloud, and digital transformation capabilities.”
