Summary
Haritha Harikumar is a Lead Product Manager based in Hamburg with 11 years of hands-on engineering and product experience, who transitioned from backend engineer to product leader after realizing she cared more about the why than the how. She combines deep systems knowledge—earned by writing, breaking, and fixing production systems—with a methodical, experiment-driven approach to sustainable growth rather than flashy KPI-chasing. Known for reflective problem‑solving (her self-described “superpower”), she turns mistakes into repeatable learnings and mentorship opportunities for students and teammates. A strong advocate for women in tech, she pairs technical credibility from roles at Yelp and Prometeon with leadership across backend, UI, and product at goodBytz. Still iterating, her focus remains clear: build thoughtful products, learn fast, and help others grow along the way.
