I'm a product manager based in Chennai. I build software, write about product and technology, and explore ideas through projects of my own.
01 · About
I'm a Lead Product Manager at Ottimate, currently building its Supplier Relationship Management product. Previously, I led product work across vendor payments and spend management.
Before Ottimate, I worked on procurement and core workflow platform products at Kissflow.
I studied mechanical engineering at the National University of Singapore and began my career in engineering and operations before moving into product.

Personal projects I'm building and experimenting with.
I'm building Nudge as an experiment in what the moat for proactive AI could be beyond the underlying model.
The idea is to explore whether persistent context, memory of unfinished outcomes, learning from corrections, and the ability to monitor and act over time can compound into something meaningfully better than a general-purpose assistant. Nudge uses email as the starting point to test those ideas in a real workflow.
I attend The Town Library, a reading club in Chennai. I built its website and developed it into an app with tools for managing the book catalogue, events, and site content.
Built with Claude and deployed on Vercel.
Visit project ↗I'm building a tool that uses computer vision to turn football match recordings into individual player statistics—from passes and shots to movement across the pitch. Players can identify themselves in the footage to link the stats to their profiles.
The initial prototype is built, with testing and improvements to detection accuracy still ahead.
