Is it not at the desired level or exploration? → let’s say exploration Swiggy is a public company → goal is profit Biggest bite in profit is delivery cost hence delivery cost/unit revenue should be minimised Delivery cost = (fixed base cost + distance * x) * probability of spoil cases Can be done by Lowering delivery cost → seems challenging "

  • "In a recent implementation of a large core banking project where we were breaking away from monolithic architecture to microservice based one we faced a situation where customer wanted to have a single repository of user and role management. Since Micro service based architecture talks about individual entities for multiple product suite it was mandatory to maintain individual user base. Based on the customer feedback, we had to come up with an unique design of single user base and replicating"

    "When I transitioned from the Analytics team to the Product team, I faced challenges in gaining the trust of the engineering team. Having previously worked with them in a role where I provided insights rather than defining their priorities, they were initially hesitant to accept my inputs in my new role. This led to some misalignment, as they chose to focus on tasks independently rather than incorporating my recommendations. Recognizing the need to build credibility, I took a proactive approach."
