Background

About Pritish Krishna Panda

Hi there! I’m Pritish—a Product Manager and UX Designer with over 7 years of experience building 0-to-1 products in B2B SaaS startups. I am based in Germany and I have a valid work permit as a dependent of a Blue Card holder. I bring a unique blend of expertise in product management, UX design, and software engineering, shaped by nearly a decade of work with companies like Comcast, Infosys, and & Open. At & Open, I lead the recipient experience team, focusing on delivering personalised and seamless gift-receiving experiences. Through Product-Led Growth (PLG) initiatives, user research, and strategic roadmapping, I’ve driven impactful outcomes, such as improving activation rates and scaling new features that enhance user engagement. Before & Open, I was a Product Manager at Blueface, where I collaborated with cross-functional teams to drive usage. A key highlight was driving a 11% increase in daily active users (DAUs) by improving mobile app performance and usability. My career began with a strong foundation in UX design, where I served as Blueface's first full-time designer. I built scalable design systems, created prototypes, and designed user-centered mobile and web experiences that delivered tangible results—such as increasing call volumes by 30% and cutting front-end development time by 50%. Outside of work, I enjoy mentoring aspiring product managers and UX designers, traveling (16 countries and counting!), and sharing insights about product growth and user experience design.
