Get to know Venkatesh

Bio

I’m Venkatesh,  a passionate product designer nestled in the vibrant hub of NCR.

Currently, I'm channeling my creativity and expertise within a Gen AI software development organization, where I play a pivotal role in crafting business strategies, driving impactful marketing initiatives, and sculpting seamless product experiences.

Before this exhilarating journey, I had the privilege of contributing to the success story of a pioneering Dutch startup, where I spearheaded the entire product design lifecycle, from ideation to launch, fostering innovation and driving tangible results.

For the last 5 years, I've been working with B2B clients from all over the world and have strategized, developed, and promoted ⚡ digital products.

My childhood was full of broken toys, not because I was a notorious kid "probably was" 😶 but because of my curiosity to know how these things work? You give me a new toy, and I would probably open it down in a day or two. Sometimes I made something out of it, and other times, well! You know what I mean. 🙄

From creating a power generator & brake lights for my 🚲 bicycle at the age of 14 to designing an emission-free ⛄ air-conditioner at 21. I've always managed to bring ideas to life.

I have also been an active volunteer throughout my University days where I organized national events & reality TV shows 📺, and have worked with an event management start-up.

For me, it's hard to imagine a career where I can't collaborate 🤝& use my creativity 💡
