Product Manager 2

Nov 2021 – Feb 2025 · 3 yrs 3 mos · Bengaluru, Karnataka, India · Hybrid

In my time here I went from APM → PM → PM 2. I managed 4 platform products and a mobile app.
I began by taking ownership of Attend, an early-stage product. Fast forward to today, we capture 50M employee attendance across 5K locations.
My scope was later expanded to internationalization (achieved PMF in GCC/SEA), reports which scaled to our entire customer base, integrations - partnered with OEMs and built scalable platform APIs that fueled enterprise expansion.
