Unique Proposition 
I like shaping technology into remarkable products and memorable experiences. I am a team player, punctual, adaptive, and fast learner. Razorpay being a leader in online payment has faced challenges and new opportunities since the covid-19 breakout, I see the contactless transaction as an opportunity where we can improve the experience of adapting users to make them comfortable with new digital methods.
