Product Manager

I turn operational chaos into products people rely on.

At CIRRANTIC, I help turn EV charging data into products used across Google Maps, Apple Maps, and other mobility platforms, part of an ecosystem reaching 30M+ EV drivers.

01 · The evolution

Every role changed how I think.

I didn't take a traditional path into product management. Every role taught me something I still rely on today.

2018-2021

How complex technical systems actually get built, specified, and signed off.

Aquatherm Engineering Consultants · Design Engineer, Control & Instrumentation · Chennai

Coordinated control and instrumentation work for 10+ thermal, hydro, and solar power-plant projects across three continents. Prepared technical specifications, supported bid analysis and feasibility studies, and coordinated FAT/SAT activities and ISO/IEC compliance requirements.

How operational insight becomes product direction.

CIRRANTIC · E-mobility Charging Content & Product Manager

I joined to improve charging data and now work on the products behind it. At CIRRANTIC, I contribute to an e-mobility platform ecosystem covering 1.5M+ charging connectors, processing 2.1M+ daily data updates, and reaching 30M+ EV drivers through channels including Google Maps and Apple Maps. My work spans ACM, Charging Radar, tariff data, product discovery, requirements, customers, operations, and multinational engineering teams.

02 · The mindset

I've always been drawn to complex problems. Not because they're difficult, but because understanding them reveals the clearest path forward.

I enjoy understanding how things really work, reducing uncertainty, and helping people move forward with confidence.

That path is why I do my best work in the messy middle.

01

Early, ambiguous, ownerless problems

I enjoy taking ownership of problems that don't yet have a clear shape. My first goal is always to create clarity and momentum.

02

The gap between engineering and the business

I like sitting between engineering and the business. I've worked closely with both, so I translate before misunderstandings grow.

03

Systems with too many moving parts

I think in systems. Before changing anything, I try to understand how the whole system behaves.

04

Operations that should be a product

I turn manual processes into products people rely on. At CIRRANTIC, that means turning tariff and charging-data workflows into scalable product modules.

Off the clock

The same curiosity follows me outside work. Chess is my favourite kind of problem: simple rules, absurd depth. If something catches my attention, I'll probably end up researching it, or building something just to understand it better. If you play, find me on Chess.com.

03 · The proof

Don't take my word for it. Here's the process, end to end.

Uru (உரு — Tamil for “form”) reads your Chess.com or Lichess history and turns it into a live, growing picture of your habits, an ink fingerprint of how you actually play, then tells you which one is quietly losing you games. No chess knowledge required. Built solo and documented in public: the discovery, the trade-offs, and the same messy multi-source data work I do at CIRRANTIC, on a product you can try right now.
