Vasusen Patil is a Senior Director of Engineering at Coursera at Coursera. Colleagues describe them as "Vasusen was an amazing partner. He went well beyond being a great technologist and engineering manager - he really got customers and business. He really cared for and understood his team, quite an accomplishment considering how large the team was. On top of all that, Vasusen was just fun to work with. I'd work with him again any time.", "Vasusen and I worked together at WePay for nearly two years, and I would work with him again in a heartbeat. Vasusen is a talented engineering manager and a fierce advocate for his team: he was deeply involved in planning and execution, yet also found time every week to meet individually with eleven direct reports for coaching. Vasusen helped me grow immensely as a product manager by not only teaching me technical skills (git, versioning, and good design principles, to name a few), but also by being a role-model organizational leader. I felt Vasusen’s support at every step, and he never shied away from providing feedback when he identified areas of weakness. Vasusen was also a mainstay of WePay’s culture, and his keen sense of humor will be missed! Any organization would be lucky to have Vasusen - he has my highest recommendation.", and "Vasusen joined WePay to work on our API product. At the time, this was a side project and the company was primarily focused on consumer/SMB offerings. However, Vasusen together with another engineer turned our API product from a second-class citizen to the main (and the only) WePay product. He worked hard on building the new features; helping API developers by answering questions; and working with sales on growing the business. At all times Vasusen showed great attitude and he was always advocating for the customer needs. I would not hesitate to recommend Vasusen to anyone looking for a great engineer or a product manager."
