PM by ambition. Engineer by training. Reads RCA teardowns for fun.
I built a production platform for PMO leads and executives at RealPage. Now I'm looking for the next problem worth solving.
Engineer turned product thinker
I'm a recent IT graduate from Hyderabad who spent a year at RealPage co-owning PMOrbit — a production project management platform built from 0 to 1 for PMO leads and executive leadership. I ran user interviews, managed the roadmap, defined requirements, and shipped features that reduced handoff friction by 40%.
My background is full-stack — React, TypeScript, .NET Core, SQL — which means I can sit in a system design conversation and a user interview in the same day and add value in both. I don't need things explained twice.
I'm currently looking for APM or PM roles where I can own a product area end to end. If you're building something real and need someone who moves fast, thinks in user problems, and writes specs developers can build from — let's talk.
Outside of work, I follow cricket more closely than I should and have opinions about Hyderabad biryani that most people disagree with.

Ships change minds. Specs don't.
I've seen brilliant PRDs kill momentum. At RealPage I learned to get features in front of users fast — even rough ones — because a working thing in someone's hands tells you more than six rounds of internal alignment ever will.
If the dev is confused, the spec is wrong.
Requirements exist to make building obvious. I rewrite until the first question from engineering is "when do you need this?" not "what does this mean?" That's the only measure of a good spec.
Talk to users before you have a solution.
50+ user interviews at RealPage. The most useful ones had zero assumptions going in. Most PMs use interviews to validate — I use them to understand. The difference shows in what actually gets built.

A PM metrics deep-dive into Asana and Trello — north star definition, supporting hierarchy, rejection rationale, and guardrails for two divergent takes on collaborative work management.
Stack Overflow
Root cause analysis of Stack Overflow's 50%+ traffic decline in the AI era — how ChatGPT, community decay, and product stagnation converged to displace a market leader.
LinkedIn for Freshers
A product enhancement proposal for LinkedIn — reducing the job-search friction freshers face when no explicit 0-experience filter exists and every posting requires manual inspection.
Cluely
Product teardown and competitive analysis of the AI overlay that turned 'cheating on interviews' into a venture-backed company — examining whitespace, growth mechanics, and strategic pivots.
Arattai
Root cause analysis of Zoho's Indian messaging app that hit #1 in downloads then lost 99% of its user base within 8 weeks — a masterclass in what network-effect products get wrong.
