Riddhi Mohan Sharma · IDENTITY INFRASTRUCTURE
Riddhi Mohan Sharma

Senior Engineering Leader at WebMD/Medscape (2019–2026). Architected and scaled identity infrastructure for 3.5 million credentialed professionals.

Specialized in high-velocity M&A technology integration, consolidating 12+ acquired entities into a single, sovereign-compliant governance layer under HIPAA and GDPR.

Focused on translating complex regulatory requirements into executable infrastructure, specifically for the governance of Agentic AI.

Building governance systems that regulators trust and engineers can actually ship inside.

Expertise.

AI Architectures

AI in regulated industries fails when governance is bolted on after deployment. I design it into the architecture before the first model is trained.

Global Identity (SSO/IAM)

3.5M+ credentialed healthcare professionals across US, EU, and international markets — on a single identity layer that doesn't break when jurisdictions disagree.

M&A Integration

12+ acquisitions integrated. Zero custom integration builds. Identity architecture that treats M&A as a repeatable operation, not a one-off crisis.

Standards & Governance

Contributing to IEEE P2933 (Clinical IoT Trust) and cross-body alignment across CSA, NIST, WHO, and the EU AI Act — focused on the identity layer for AI agents operating across sovereign healthcare jurisdictions.

Product Strategy

Engineering that ships features is common. Engineering that moves a revenue line is rare. That's the only version I build.

Ask Me About

  • How to turn AI governance from a compliance cost into a shipping velocity advantage — and why most enterprises are building this backwards.
  • Why M&A identity integration fails in year two, not week one — and the repeatable architecture that stops the bleed.

Let's Connect

If your AI strategy doesn't include an identity layer, you're not governing AI — you're gambling on it. That's the conversation I want to have.
