What it's like to work with Anusha

“

Anusha makes things happen, and she makes the people around her better in the process. She spearheaded the taxi integration between Zed and Dubai's RTA, navigating government stakeholders, third-party intermediaries, and significant technical complexity.

I appreciate the analytical skills she brings to the table, she always looks to bring the best out of her. She has the right appetite to make the product successful. Had a great experience working with her to solve some complex ML and Geo Image Sensing problems.

She is genuinely one of the best PMs I've worked with. Anusha has a strong user-first mindset and is very clear in her thinking. She consistently pushed us to look at how each decision would help first-time users as well as repeat users.

Anusha consistently brought clarity to ambiguity. She demonstrated strong technical depth, asked precise and thoughtful questions, and translated complex constraints into well-defined product requirements that engineering teams across organizations could execute against.

Anusha was Ashraf's client at Zed

“

She was the sole Product Manager driving the 0→1 launch and rapid scale of our taxi platform in Dubai. Anusha is deeply customer-centric and truly represents the voice of the user. She drove on-ground rider and driver research, turning everyday taxi rides into actionable insights.

She is, without a doubt, one of the best project managers I've come across in my career. What truly sets her apart is her strong technical expertise and deep domain knowledge — she knows exactly what she's doing and speaks with confidence and clarity.
