What I'm looking for

I'm looking for meaningful opportunities where I can use both my technical & business skills to drive growth and make a difference.

With over 8 years of experience in the Tech industry (with nearly 6 years in Product), I have a deep understanding of the product development process and the challenges that come with launching and managing successful products. Having worked in 3 countries (India, Singapore & UK), I have a proven track record of managing complex projects involving multiple stakeholders and cross-functional teams. I have been directly involved in deploying and managing Tata Communication’s products (over 5 in the portfolio, including Tata's IZO Cloud Storage), along with handling the project management of all the deployments. I am thus familiar with handling product roadmaps from a strategy perspective and complex technical solution delivery from a technical stack standpoint. I have experience working both inbound and outbound (with stakeholders till the CxO on both sides) and have successfully presented and led multiple business gate meetings. I am excited to use my skills and ready to take on new challenges.
