Saurabh joined QSR in the capacity of Product Owner to support our cloud initiatives. Saurabh's strong experience in working with delivery teams and agile practices meant that he truly hit the ground running. Focusing on customer feedback and insights, Saurabh created lasting value, leading various improvements and new product initiatives. With a strong sense of ownership, Saurabh looks at ways to introduce product and process improvements. He brings various perspectives to the table and he takes a very collaborative approach by including the relevant team members or stakeholders to support development and decision making. Saurabh ensures that the customer’s perspective and pain points are always central across the various functional areas. Saurabh is approachable, well-respected, and well-liked by his colleagues. I can highly recommend Saurabh for any suitable role.

Saurabh is a remarkable product owner. As product manager for the team, I've been very impressed when working with him. He is able to context switch effortlessly when working with different audiences; he gets technical when talking to the development teams, methodical when working with other product owners, user experience centric when working with experience designers and converses in business value with me. We are sad to lose him on our team, and wish him all the best in his future endeavors!
