I am pretty passionate about Reddit. In a world where media is biased and polarized, Reddit threads gives me a sense of how local communities view the world. It helps me get grounded in reality of what different cadres of people are thinking by browsing different communities. Reddit is very engaging, as in, you can comment and instantly receive feedback. While there is a lot of "internet hate" and "misinformation" in Reddit communities and threads as well, looking at a wider spectrum of communities within Reddit, especially the differing ones, helps you form a less polarized and biased opinion. I prefer contributing by asking open-ended questions and if I have an opinion, posting it respectfully as a question. I also respond to scientific minded questions that I have qualifications to answer. By selectively responding and answering questions with some due diligence, I keep the communities I am a part of thriving and truth-based.

Do you feel like a specialist or a generalist product manager?

I see myself as a generalist product manager with the ability to deliver across diverse domains while leveraging specialized knowledge when needed. My work spans industries such as edtech, health tech, and DevOps, each demanding unique approaches and strategies.

At KodeKloud, I owned the product vision for KodeKloud Engineer, driving user acquisition up by 15% and achieving 80% of KPIs. I collaborated with cross-functional teams, navigating technical and operational challenges to enhance user engagement by 25%. This required broad expertise in user behavior, community engagement, and technical execution.

As the CTO and Co-founder of Minbo Health Technologies, I scaled the platform from zero to over 10,000 users, leading a team of 20. This role demanded a comprehensive understanding of technology, user experience, and operational efficiency.

When necessary, I focus deeply on specific challenges. For instance, at QuestMath, I revamped interfaces and introduced gamification, boosting engagement by 35% and reducing support tickets by 30%. These efforts required specialized skills in UX design and data-driven decision-making.

This blend of versatility and depth equips me to lead teams, solve complex problems, and deliver impactful products.

During my career I manage a large number of projects, but one of the most challenging ones was the development and launch of a Telematic Control Unit for an important car maker in Japan. The project is important to me due to technical challenges we faced, the skills I applied and the impact on the company.

As Program manager my role was to lead a cross-functional team including Design Engineers, SW Engineers, Operations teams, Material procurement teams, quality and logistics, among others to successfully launch the product to mass production.

First, I kicked-off the project. For that, I shared with the team the project scope, the goals to achieve, I shared the project plan with key milestones and defined the roles and responsibilities for the different team members.

During execution, to maintain a clear communication, I set up design review sessions with the entire engineering organization to ensure everyone was aligned and fixing potential issues in advance. Besides, I led a weekly core-team meeting where we assigned tasks to team members, and setting clear deadlines for each task. To make these tasks easier to manage, I made sure tasks were broken down into manageable sizes with clear descriptions and acceptance criteria. This helped the team to stay focus on their deliveries and maintain speed.

Another important part was to manages Risks. I worked with the team to identify and classify possible risk that might impact to the project deliverables. We defined a Risk matrix to monitor during the development process, and also a project board with the main KPIs to achieve during each stage of the project.

To ensure quality, we defined different testing processes focused on the design, and the process. We installed specific quality check for the documents and devices delivered for each of the milestones of the PDP, as well as a clear quality control in mass production.

Finally, for transparency, I reported on monthly basis to our company leaders and customer about the project status, focusing on Timing, cost, quality and scope.

By employing these strategies, we successfully launched our module on time matching with all the requirements defined by our customer. This was a great example of teamworking, and taught me the importance of breaking down large projects into smaller and easy to manage pieces. Transparent and clear communication was also a great lesson learned. This approach helped me to improve in leading teams through complex problems.

MVP for Maintenance module where all maintenance work was tracked for the vessels. While it was lift and shift but challenge was identifying the gaps and prioritizing correct features to provide MVP. For example, I brainstormed certain features like equipment maintenance, work orders, were most important than some reports.. I also realized that some authentications, system preferences were also missing which holds highest importance. There was also a feature where it would automatically tell which maintenance work is upcoming. I developed a report of my findings and came up with high impacted features that were missing. The effort was estimated, and high impact low effort took first seat in the roadmap followed by high effort features. Early Adopter mechanism

Result: There was 80% parity achieved w.r.t. legacy system for high impact features and 30% of targeted adoption was achieved for Maintenance module.

I was working on a high stake project with very high visibility from my senior management.

Me and my manager were thinking of can we leverage the quality of the development using help from QA team. He wanted to keep the QA team separate. His point of view was that a separate team would keep clear focus for the team and they would focus on finding more customer facing bugs. I thought that we should have QA embedded in the scrum team as that would help in easier collaboration and quicker bug fixes plus this is a more efficient way. Though I understood his point of view I always believed that in QA embedded inside the scrum team. I went back had a thought to measure the merits and demerits of the proposals. I put down in a slide the merits and demerits of each. Merit from having a separate team, clear focus and better filtering of quality, demerits less collaboration with development team. I then proposed that the QA engineers attend the calls of dev teams but keep a separate QA board for their tasks. This will give clarity of what bugs they find, what test scenarios they create and finally the metrics to measure the bugs reported per development. My boss and I both agreed as it solved the problems of each proposals

At my previous job, the development process moving slower than expected at my first project since I was not familiar with the development progress.

When I realize this situation, I tackle this problems with some actions: (I took proper action afterwards:

1.First, I start by thorough understanding the development process and test plan, which associate the function test case, requirement and criteria for each phase. Those could let me planning the design schedule accurately, andarrange the test resource more efficiency.

2.On the other hand, to set the check point for project review

3.For issue management, provide the issue summary which include isolation result, impact and mitigation plan for risk assessment for further control. Take partial review with team members in order to ensure could meet target performance in tight schedule.

Both give me the precise control for development and test area, and could identify potential risk in advance, be able to have recommendations for improvements as well.

After that, I have in charge for more than 15 projects and achieve 94% timely delivery of high-quality results.

Alsoability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
