      Jan 16 2026

      In this episode of The Med-Tech Talent Lab, host Mitch Robbins sits down with Jahnavi Lokre, Chief Operating Officer at Diality, a Series B medical device company focused on transforming kidney care.

      Jahnavi shares her 25+ year journey from growing up in India in a science-driven household to building a career across software engineering, regulated industries, and executive leadership in MedTech. With experience spanning transportation systems, contract manufacturing, and product ownership at both large organizations and startups, she offers a rare, cross-industry perspective on what it truly takes to build and scale high-performing teams.

      Listeners will gain practical insight into:

      • How transferable skills from highly regulated industries can unlock MedTech leadership opportunities
      • Why stepping up before you feel “ready” is often the catalyst for executive growth
      • The mindset shifts required to move from engineering into senior leadership
      • Hiring lessons learned the hard way, including when to act quickly on a mis-hire
      • How strong leaders balance trust, accountability, and execution
      • Why bold thinking, persistence, and values-driven leadership matter in fast-moving startups

      Jahnavi also discusses Diality’s mission to improve outcomes and reduce costs in dialysis care, the realities of innovating in an under-evolved market, and what excites her most about the future of kidney disease treatment.

      This episode is packed with candid leadership lessons, career-defining insights, and actionable advice for engineers, operators, and aspiring executives looking to grow their impact in MedTech and beyond.
