A small, senior, highly technical product team.

    Founders and CTOs bring us in when they need experienced product leadership without hiring a full-time senior team immediately. We sit between product strategy and engineering execution.

    Built from the intersection of product, engineering and business.

    Janahan Thavendran
    Founder & Product Technology Lead

    Janahan brings 12+ years across software engineering, product management, and technical product leadership, working across payments, platforms, APIs, mobile products, AI-enabled systems, and enterprise technology.

    He has led payment and platform products from 0 to $1B+ GMV, managed 10+ direct reports across 10+ markets, and shipped production AI systems. He brings the rare combination of engineering depth, product strategy, and commercial execution.

    His experience spans hands-on engineering through senior product leadership, giving Prodaptix a practical perspective across the entire product lifecycle — from problem definition and architecture through delivery, launch and scale.

    Prodaptix is led by Janahan and supported by a specialist network of senior product, engineering and domain practitioners brought in when an engagement needs them.
