Who Is Muthu Raman?

I'm a multi-disciplinary creative engineer from Tirunelveli — equal parts technologist, designer, and marketer. 8 years building products, systems, and campaigns that most don't notice, but everyone uses.

I've designed apps that raised $5M. I've built CI/CD pipelines nobody asked for. I've led brand strategy while writing Selenium scripts and administering Azure tenants. The most interesting work happens where code meets creativity.
