I’m Tamil Selvan R S — a Senior Engineering Manager working across product, platform, and execution systems. Over the years I’ve helped teams scale customer-facing experiences, reduce operational load, and build predictable delivery in messy environments.
But the questions that keep pulling me back are human ones:
What creates sustained motivation in remote teams?
How do we build psychological safety without lowering the bar?
What does “care” look like in leadership when stakes are high?
How do children learn without turning learning into pressure?
I’m also running a few personal experiments—building an AI-assisted learning OS with my daughter, and tinkering with agentic workflows as a builder/learner.
This newsletter is where I write to clarify what’s working, what’s not, and what I’m trying next.
