Asheen Phansey has spent more than fifteen years working on a less explored aspect of sustainability—embedding it directly into how products are designed, not just how they are measured or reported.
As ESG and Sustainability Director at PagerDuty, he brings experience that cuts across industries and disciplines. His work consistently pushes sustainability upstream, into decision-making processes where it can shape outcomes rather than react to them.
At Dassault Systèmes, he helped develop the first CAD-integrated life cycle assessment tool. This allowed engineers to incorporate environmental considerations directly into product design.
He has also contributed to industry-wide frameworks, including co-authoring aerospace sector guidance for the GHG Protocol. Alongside this, he developed approaches like handprinting, which shift the focus from reducing harm to creating positive impact.
His work moves between technical rigor and broader systems thinking. It reflects an approach to sustainability that is both analytical and exploratory.
