Pratik Patki

Principal Product Manager at Acquia

An experience of 11 years across multiple industry verticals for Tier-1 companies in Consulting and IT services industry, I currently work as a Lead Consultant with the Domain Consulting Group of Infosys. My work involves understanding business problems, designing long-term and short-term solutions, responding to RFP's and working on growth strategies for the department. I have a fair bit of understanding of organizational processes and I believe that I have good communication, analytical and relationship management skills. My strengths lie in identifying problems quickly, coming up with solutions- both long term and short term, understanding, setting up and adhering to processes, adapting to situations and the ability to think clearly under stress. I have primarily worked in the Recruiting, Social Media Marketing, Manufacturing, ITES, Retail and NBFC sectors.

My overall experience till now spans Product Management, Consulting, Presales, Business Analysis, Software Development with thorough exposure to Social Media Analytics, Product and Software Lifecycle, Business Process Re-engineering and Business Continuity Planning. Apart from work, I have a passion for extreme fitness and am usually involved in one or the other endurance sports activities every year. Long distance cycling and running half marathons being the latest. A few years down the lane I would love to attempt an Iron Man. Photography, painting, watching movies and once in a while penning down my thoughts are some of the other hobbies I pursue. I have recently contributed to a book "Karwar to Kolhapur via Mumbai" in terms of Travel photography and I also maintain my own website and blog about my travels at www.pratikpatki.com

Am a traveler at heart and love to explore different cities and capture their essence in my camera.
