Shruthi Sundar — Product Thinker

a developer turned product thinker, crafting experiences for the future.

01 // MANIFESTO

I build at the intersection of technology, products and people.

A software engineer turned product thinker, I enjoy turning complex technical problems into products that are simple, useful and human.

PRODUCT · TECHNOLOGY · DATA · SYSTEMS

Operating across engineering rigor and product vision to bridge technical reality with intuitive human experiences.

02 // SELECTED WORK

Products, systems, and concepts I've built.

From 0-to-1 consumer ventures generating real commercial revenue, to personal workflow tools and innovative product concepts.

03 // PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Engineering at Enterprise Scale.

While Mango Factory proves 0-to-1 product ownership and personal builds solve real human workflows, my enterprise background centers on driving high-stakes product architectures and data platforms at Morgan Stanley.

MORGAN STANLEY ASSOCIATE P2 → ASSOCIATE P3 → P3 PRODUCT MANAGER PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE · FINTECH · TREASURY · REGTECH

P3 Product Manager

Engineered mission-critical regulatory liquidity engines and automated data infrastructure supporting global treasury compliance and enterprise balance sheet verification.

  • Liquidity Reporting Automation (RLT): Led the end-to-end automation of Regulatory Liquidity Testing, shrinking manual reporting latency from 40 minutes down to 12 seconds with zero audit errors.
  • High-Throughput Streaming: Architected distributed data processing workflows across Kafka event streams, Snowflake warehouses, and real-time Power BI decision portals (100 GB+ daily scale).
  • Product & Technical Bridge: Navigated the intersection of engineering architecture and product leadership, converting regulatory mandates into clear technical roadmaps.
  • Engineering Mentorship: Mentored cross-functional engineering teams on product-minded system design, clean modular APIs, and fault-tolerant architecture.

05 // PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY

Good products hide complexity.

01

Start with the problem

Understand the actual user friction and business constraints before jumping to solutions. The cleanest architecture is meaningless if it solves the wrong problem.

02

Make complexity disappear

Strong products turn complicated distributed systems into simple, effortless experiences where the heavy lifting happens quietly under the hood.

03

Build, measure, learn

Prototype fast, observe how humans actually interact with it in production, and ruthlessly iterate based on real feedback and ground-truth data.

06 // CAPABILITIES & CRAFT

Skills

Product capability first, with the engineering and tooling depth behind it. Select a capability to see where it has been applied.
