Hari is a Happiness Engineer at Automattic, and lives in the beautiful city of Kochi, with his wife. He has worked as a Banker, Journalist, and as a WordPress Project Manager with a startup, prior to joining Automattic. WordPress is Hari’s raison d’être. He stumbled-upon the content management system in 2005, as a gawky teenager researching for a way to host his blog online, and since then, there was no looking back! The journey eventually led him to Automattic, where he helps customers build amazing eCommerce websites using WooCommerce.
Hari has created, maintained, developed, and marketed several websites, and web applications using WordPress, and is also a compulsive blogger. Hari is a strong believer in the potential of WordPress, and the Open Web, as an agent of positive change – his motto in life is to make the world (and the web) a better place.
