Vignesh Piramanayagam

Tech Product Manager @ BrowserStack

I write about product, technology, strategy, marketing and more.

Why am I writing here?

There's great power in taking some great tech, a solid business strategy, and combining it with powerful storytelling. Great ideas are worth exploring and this is a space where I capture my thoughts, and want to invite discussions from like-minded individuals who are interested in similar things!

Fun fact: I'm also now building a new hobby project called FantasyPriceWatch! It's an ML-powered price change predictor for FPL players. Check it out!

A little bit about my professional background

  • Graduated from NIT Trichy with a B.Tech in Civil Engineering. 17 year old Vignesh thought he wanted to build bridges and dams, but 21 year old Vignesh decided he wanted a career in tech instead.
  • Spent a couple of years working for Deloitte in the Consulting (Technology) practice. Helped some clients with their digital transformation efforts. Ended up leading DevOps and Infrastructure for a $1bn e-commerce business. This was a super rewarding experience.
  • Got my MBA from the Indian School of Business, with dual majors in Marketing & Strategy. Best year of my life, hands down. Learned from some incredible professors and rubbed shoulders with some amazing peers. Felt like a fish that finally found water!
  • Joined BrowserStack, the world's largest cloud-based testing platform, now valued at $4bn. I'm currently a Senior PM, helping build a next-gen product called Test Observability. Startups have a knack of putting you in mulitple shoes (which I love!). In my 5 years here, I've also worked as a Product Marketer and helped grow multiple business lines over 150%, and also been part of Product Strategy teams to help define the future vision for the company. Through every role, my biggest takeaway is that I've developed a real passion for developer tools, and how we can change the world with better developer experiences.
