Engineer turned Product Manager. Amateur writer. Obsessive gamer. Perpetual learner. I live on Notion, trade on Zerodha, and bleed Manchester United red.
I'm Avinash Bangera — most people call me Avi. I started out as an Electronics & Telecom engineer before realising I cared more about why products are built than how they're wired together.
Now I'm a Product Manager who moonlights as a writer, a tinkerer of AI side-projects, and someone who genuinely spends time thinking about astrophysics for fun. I plan my life in Notion with the same obsessive energy I bring to a Souls game boss fight.
I live in Mumbai with Pam, who humours my 2am game sessions and annual Game Awards tradition.
What I’m currently obsessing over.
Side-quests I keep returning to. Built between Sekiro deaths and afternoon chai. Some shipped, some still in my head.
I've tried them all. Claude by Anthropic is the one I keep coming back to. It thinks carefully, writes with nuance, and doesn't hallucinate its way through complex questions. It's the AI I trust when the output actually matters.
I use Claude daily — for brainstorming product strategy, debugging Python scripts, drafting essays, building this very website, and wiring up my personal AI agent. It's the closest thing I've found to a genuinely thoughtful collaborator.
Anthropic's focus on AI safety and building AI that is helpful, harmless, and honest aligns with how I think technology should be built. Good values in the model, good values in the company.
