# Hardhik Potharaju on Tal

## Headline

Senior PM @ Adobe \| Enterprise AI & CRM platforms \| Workflow Automation

## About

I build products in the parts of enterprise software people usually inherit, not admire\. At Adobe, I work on the global renewals platform behind a $6B\+ business across Salesforce, Dynamics 365, finance, customer health and revenue operations\. Most recently, I built and shipped a Python \+ Playwright automation product for global Sales Ops and Data Ops teams\. It cut \~57 hours of weekly manual work to under 7 and now handles \~12,000 field updates a week at 99\.8% accuracy\. I have also built Copilot agents for internal policy Q&A and PRD automation\. Useful products, but also a useful lesson: AI is only as valuable as the behaviour it changes\. Before Adobe, I helped build L&T SuFin, a B2B commerce and MSME lending marketplace that scaled to ₹1,500 Cr GMV\. At Deloitte, I worked on Axis Bank’s 11M\+ MAU app, improving KYC completion by 80% and daily transactions by 30%, and worked on digital wallet, prepaid card and RBI PPI launch strategy\. My work usually sits across AI, automation, CRM, payments, lending, marketplaces and product analytics\. I care about products that move a number\. Revenue ; Conversion ; Adoption ; Time saved ; Risk reduced\. If it does not change how work gets done, it is probably not done\.
