MSSM, 2027

This is how to say my name:

 

Why MSSM?

I chose the MSSM program because I’m excited about the intersection of technology, business, and people. Over the years, I’ve led projects, worked with diverse teams, and built a nonprofit organization with over 600 volunteers, which showed me how important it is to combine strategy with execution. As I transition into product management, I want to strengthen my technical and business skills while learning from classmates with different perspectives. MSSM feels like the right place to help me grow into a leader who can build products that make a meaningful impact.

Education

I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science from Maharashtra Institute of Technology, World Peace University, Pune, where I graduated with a Silver Medal and ranked 2nd in my class. Prior to that, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Savitribai Phule Pune University, graduating 5th in a class of 180 students.

Experience

My most recent role was Engineer – Product Engineering at 11:11 Systems (formerly Sungard Availability Services), where I worked for four years, progressing from intern to associate engineer to engineer.

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?

After graduation, I hope to obtain a Product Manager, Technical Product Manager, Project Manager, Product Owner role within a technology-driven company where I can work at the intersection of business, technology, and customer needs. My experience in product engineering has given me a strong technical foundation, and I am excited to build on that by developing product strategy, defining roadmaps, and leading cross-functional teams. In the long term, I aspire to lead the development of products that solve meaningful problems at scale while creating value for both users and organizations.
