Yaju Arya

I am a Technical Product Lead with over 16 years of experience in leading complex initiatives and cross-functional teams across multiple time zones. My expertise lies in blending software development with business strategy, which allows me to excel in remote team management, Agile methodologies, and process optimization. I have a proven track record of driving significant revenue growth and enhancing team productivity through innovative practices.

At RudderStack, I spearheaded over 40 release cycles, aligning teams across three continents and five time zones, which generated over $1 million in revenue. My leadership in implementing new features and streamlining QA processes has resulted in a 40% reduction in tickets and a 25% decrease in defects. I also take pride in mentoring the next generation of tech talent through an intern program that successfully onboarded ten full-time employees.

Previously, as a Co-Founder and Product Lead at GoalSmacker, I directed multiple releases and introduced Agile practices that boosted sprint velocity by 35%. My experience at Walkwel Technology as a Project Manager further solidified my ability to orchestrate end-to-end project delivery, achieving an 80% on-time delivery rate and driving significant client satisfaction. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create impactful solutions and continuously seek opportunities for growth and innovation.
