Hi! I'm Swarna
I am currently growing the Cloud to Cloud migration platform to enable large enterprises to move from Atlassian's Server to Cloud offering and achieve the company's #1 OKR.
At Atlassian, I forged an opportunity to expand from design to product management. With my background in customer experience, my focus is to balance great quality for customers and business value for all things my team ships.
​
I graduated with a Bachelors in Design from National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad in 2014 and received my masters' in Integrated Innovation at Carnegie Mellon University in 2017.
​
In the past, I have worked on a range of products including enterprise software ( Jira platform), B2C voice interfaces ( Bixby at Samsung ), consumer electronics, the internet of things, and healthcare. I aim to influence product development in a holistic manner by being the user's advocate in multi-disciplinary teams.
​
I would love to hear your views on my projects and process. Do connect with me over email or on social media.
