Fondly called AK and very fond of building products, we chat with Ambarish Kenghe about product, product, and product! AK talks about building Chromecast from scratch and shares his product management philosophy. We cover the 'less is more' philosophy that Google Pay uses and growth measures for success when building a product. Finally, we also talk about the qualities to look for when hiring product managers.
Ambarish has been with Google for over a decade, and with a slight left turn to Myntra for a couple of years in between also heading product there, he's been with Google for a while. At Google, he was PM at Google TV, where he co-founded Chromecast and most recently has been responsible for Google Pay – the most ubiquitous payment platform in India today.
Quotables on his 3 step philosophy on successfully launching a product.
"The most important aspect is Ownership. Then
- Get your priorities right. Ask yourself honestly - do you have your minimum viable product and not too much more?
- Make sure your basics work. The important stuff.
- Find a way to reach your consumers - what does marketing look like?"
