About

I'm Manjula — an Engineering Manager, Delivery Lead, and International Tech Speaker based in Berlin, with 10+ years of experience spanning hands-on frontend engineering to leading cross-functional teams at scale.
My journey started as a software engineer writing React, Node.js, and GraphQL — and over the years I grew into engineering leadership, where I built and scaled engineering operations in Germany at companies like N26 and Vanguard. That path from IC to EM is something I lived firsthand, and it's one of the things I love helping others navigate.

At Vanguard, I led cross-functional teams, defined technical vision, implemented Agile practices that reduced cycle time by 25–30%, and mentored engineers at every stage of their careers. I believe great engineering leadership is rooted in empathy — a value I've spoken about publicly and built teams around.
I'm also an active international conference speaker, having presented at React Day Berlin, FrontCon, ReactJS Day, React Alicante, ReactJS Girls Conference, and more — on topics ranging from React advanced patterns to empathy-driven development.
I can help you with:

Transitioning from Engineer to Engineering Manager
Becoming a more effective and empathetic tech leader
Agile delivery, stakeholder management, and team building
Breaking into conference speaking and writing your first CFP
React, frontend architecture, and technical strategy
