Anish WijesingheSenior Product Engineer · Forward-Deployed

I care about building systems I can work within alongside the team, where momentum comes from shared context and people still have room to own their decisions. I connect customer journeys, the systems behind them, and measurement so we can see what is working and decide what to improve next.

About

Working across product, engineering, and creative teams has shown me how easily work slows down when direction and implementation drift apart. The people setting direction need enough visibility to make the next call, and the people building need enough context and ownership to keep moving. I shape the product, measurement, and delivery around both needs.

Work areas

These areas group the responsibilities I have taken on across different roles and projects. Sometimes separately, often together.

Product & Growth

Product direction, customer journeys, experimentation, and revenue.

Platforms & Data

Identity, payments, delivery, attribution, analytics, and reporting.

Interactive & Spatial

Games, real-time 3D, WebGL, WebGPU, motion, and creative tools.

Founding, technical direction, distributed teams, and product studios.
