About

I'm an Engineer turned Product Manager with over 15+ years of experience in building industry leading enterprise software solutions. My curiosity to understand users' need and figuring out what to build led me to move from engineering to Product Management. I always play the role of the users' advocate and build products that create delightful experiences and simplify users' life. My experiences at larger teams and start-ups have given me opportunities to work cross-functionally with Engineering, Design(UX), Sales, Marketing and Customer Success teams across the globe to build and ship products. As a product manager, I bring customer focus and user context to everyday work that the team does. I have experience in rallying the different teams towards achieving the business objective and creating an impact for the users and the organisation. I love being a product manager as no two days of the week are alike and I get to play different roles. I enjoy mentoring aspiring PMs and am a certified Product Management mentor at "The Mentoring Club platform". I am looking for my next role as Director or Product or Group Product Manager where I can own the product strategy and build teams and have fun! Feel free to connect if you are interested in talking about product management or hiring for a product leader.
