About Vijay Surya P

Thanks for dropping by. Here\'s my story!After engineering, I started working in marketing at Zoho Corp. I learnt all I could about the SaaS industry and B2B marketing. My product gave me a lot of opportunities to try out new ways to showcase the product. This enabled me to travel around the world and present it. I was also fortunate to have had very meaningful discussions with our C-level executives to understand the big picture of the company, and the industry as a whole. I could also talk with partners and end-users, understand their requirements and work towards by providing better offerings. I’m unabashedly proud when atechnology partner tells me he could grow his business due to my marketing efforts. After more than two years of Zoho, as the product scaled I felt I could do more if I knew more. That was when, after careful deliberation, I choose to do an MBA at NMIMS Mumbai. I realized I was a generalist and had an inclination towards strategy. So, I chose electives that would give me rounded knowledge and graduated out with a General Management profile. All that said and done, I’m started looking forward to work in a tech company after my MBA in Strategy or Product Management roles.I got placed into the world of legacy fintech with IDFC First Bank with the payments team. Here I get to work hands-on with UPI and MSME Payments on both web and mobile devices. Being one of the newest banks, there is immense opportunity to work towards a better UX and differentiate ourselves as a bank for the future.Apart from work, I’m an avid cyclist and a certified randonneur. I love movies, and a bunch of friends and I also have our own Instagram page on movies called @repeataudience. I’m also freelancing to help a Chennai-based gym trainer set up her Instagram portfolio. I’ve travelled quite a bit, my last being a solo trip to Mexico City in 2019.From what I’ve worked on, I can help MBA aspirants with their CAT/XAT preparation. I can help marketers with knowledge and tools required to help add value to their careers in SaaS marketing. I also have limited experience in product design, and can help in that too.
