Subhasish
Goswami

I worked with Subhasish for almost seven years at MPOWER, and he became one of the people I relied on most. He grew tremendously during that time, earning multiple promotions and eventually leading Product for our core international student lending business. Subhasish is extremely reliable, thorough and structured, with a strong sense of ownership. He was always open about issues and blockers, which I really appreciated. No matter how stressful things got, he stayed level-headed, brought a calm presence to the team and focused on solving the problem. As a product leader, he is very data-oriented and thoughtful in how he makes decisions. He can go deep into the details while also stepping back and looking at the broader product and customer experience. He worked very well across Product, Engineering and Operations, managed third-party partners effectively, and was particularly good at removing internal blockers and getting different teams moving in the same direction. Most importantly, Subhasish always delivered. He believed in our mission and product, cared about his team and the people around him, and was someone I knew I could count on. After almost seven years working together, I would work with him again anytime.

I still remember meeting Subhasish at our WeWork office six and a half years ago and being immediately impressed — a first impression he then proceeded to validate five promotions in a row, from entry-level Product Owner to Head of Product. What he does best is take the ambiguous, tangled problems nobody has framed yet and turn them into products teams can execute with clarity and confidence. He helped build and scale both our Business Analysis and Product functions while MPOWER grew from roughly $35M to $350M in annual originations, bringing configurability, automation, and a steadily better customer experience to the lending platform along the way. Few people grow with a company that completely; Subhasish did, and any company would be fortunate to have him leading product.

I've had the absolute pleasure of working alongside Subhasish for nearly 7 years, watching him excel and grow into an incredible Senior Product Manager. We've tackled numerous technology and product rollouts together, and through it all, he has consistently been the absolute go-to person in the company for bridging the gap between engineering, business, and product teams. Subhasish is incredibly level-headed and has an unmatched knack for cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management. When it comes to building out requirements, he always asks the exact right, detailed questions. He takes true product ownership, he knows the product inside and out, and is constantly finding ways to improve it. Whenever we hit a roadblock, his calm, structured problem-solving approach makes troubleshooting a breeze. He is fantastic with follow-up and keeps everyone aligned, always keeping his eye on driving business outcomes and pushing our company goals forward. Subhasish is a massive asset to any team he's on, and I really can't recommend him highly enough!

I have worked with Subhasish from May 2019 to December 2019 on one of our priority projects and found him to be extremely reliable. Subhasish always ensured the engineering team had the requirements they needed and followed up our business stakeholders when required, very articulate with his requirements gathering, always stepped up to take ownership of tasks and followed through to the end. It has been an absolute please working with Subhasish and would highly recommend him for product roles.
