Aashna Doshi, an Indian-origin software engineer, resigned from her position at Google at age 23 to pursue entrepreneurship. She left the company to build a podcast and an artificial intelligence startup.

Doshi had described her role at Google as her dream job. The decision to quit came as she sought to create her own ventures in media and technology.

Her podcast focuses on conversations around career, culture, and personal growth. The AI startup aims to leverage machine learning for content creation or distribution, though specific details remain undisclosed.

Doshi's move reflects a broader trend of young professionals leaving established tech firms to launch independent projects. She joins a growing number of Indian-origin entrepreneurs in the U.S. startup ecosystem.
