I remember the thrill and happiness after completing a set and the excitement to show it to my family, relatives and friends.

    "I told a story about how our team was focussed on moving a key metric i.e. NPS and to do that we build 3 top requested user feature. Post release the detractors % didn't move even though the detractors request for features shipped went down.

    "In 2019, I was given a very important problem to solve. In a team of 3 we had to build a mobility assist device. The customer segment we would go for was something we could decide. The project was very close to me as I had lost someone I loved because of cancer and I saw how reduced mobility was a huge pain point in not being able to do physical activities. My team could only think of elderly people as the main target market. As the Head of Product what I did was: 1) I helped them dive even d"

    "We had a huge launch on September 1st of this year where we completely redesigned our application from the grounds up and also migrated to a new platform (React.JS). This project took us 8 months and the launch was a huge deal for the team. Unfortunately the launch wasn't as smooth as we expected and despite doing multiple rounds of QA, some major issues cropped up in the core part of the app right after launch and our client was quite upset since it was disrupting their day-to-day workflow.

There are probably two reasons why Google would bid to maintain its place as the default search engine on Firefox: the first, Firefox is a popular web browser, with many users, and Google wants to retain the large user base who search on Firefox. Second, Firefox users tend to be more privacy oriented than users of other browsers, therefore Google wants to c"
