I am Vijay Bharadwaj and I am a Product Generalist.

I bring a first-principle lens to the 0 → 1 process in product building, product design and GTM, helping teams think clearly and execute with conviction.

I come from creative origins. I learnt how to articulate abstractions from a course on Feminist Theory. I learnt how to break apart abstractions by preparing for management consulting interviews. I learnt how to ask the right questions from a course on Human-Computer Interaction. I am still learning about products, technology, humans and business.

I am currently building : AI for high-context lives.
