I’m Vikram Haridas

A drummer, a coder, an entrepreneur. Jovial.

Brain of a techie, heart of a sales person and soul of a UX designer. Startup aficionado. I strive to find more problems that can be solved with technology that we face in our daily lives.

Currently a Product Manager at Groupon. In the past I have worked as a Product Manager with PlayShifu, a company that makes educational games and toys for young children. I have also worked at IvyCap Ventures as a Product Manager, bringing to life their IvyCamp platform which helped startups find investors and corporates find startup solutions.

About Me

Not just a developer

Name: Haridas
Job: Product Manager
Age: 32 Years
Hometown: Bangalore

I spent a majority of my adult life trying to become a good developer and designer. Having achieved proficiency in HTML/JS/RoR and understanding UI/UX, I set my sights on becoming a Product Manager. After years of managing products for employers and clients, I believe today that I have what it takes to take an idea and culminate it into a product. Along this journey, I have gathered insights on building MVP and getting market validation.

Today, most of my decisions are driven by numbers. Be it analytics, primary/secondary research or market statistics. I have helped launch/scale products for both employers and clients.
