Dream of leading at the top while raising your kids and avoiding burnout? This week Andrew meets Raghul, the remote SVP who automated his way to a promotion, and built a life on his terms.
Hey, Welcome Back!
Can you climb to the top of your career without sacrificing your life to burnout?
Most people think tech success comes with a hefty price - endless meetings, late-night emails, and burning the candle at both ends.
But that doesn’t have to be your destiny.
Meet Raghul Suthagar. He’s an SVP of Operations at Trilogy, and he’s proving that you can lead at the highest level without stepping foot in an office, staying stagnant in a dead-end job - or sacrificing your sanity.
He’s not just crushing it professionally. He spends his mornings with his six-month-old son, avoids burnout like it’s his job, and designs systems so efficient he can automate himself out of work (and into his next promotion).
This is something MORE than work-life balance - it’s career-life harmony.
And guess what? It’s all possible thanks to AI and fully remote work.
This week, I caught up with Raghul in the iconic Gardens by the Bay to uncover how he built an enviable global career while balancing family life, avoiding burnout, and leading a team of high-performers - from the heart of Singapore.
His approach to life proves one thing:
You don’t need to sacrifice your mental health to reach the top.
Whether you’re a remote rookie or a seasoned pro, Raghul’s story is your roadmap to a career that works with your life - not against it.
Ready to rethink what leadership looks like?
Raghul’s career is legendary: from engineering student to joining Grab in its unicorn days, to leading global powerhouses at Trilogy.
His secret? Bias toward action, scalable systems, and balancing work, life, and family.
The defining difference has been 100% remote work:
🚀 Flexibility to work U.S. hours while raising his son in Singapore
💡 Results over presenteeism - no red tape, no commutes
🌍 Career success and personal fulfillment > perfectly in sync
Remote work isn’t just a perk - it’s the key that unlocks a meaningful life of leadership.
How did he do it?
Getting in on the ground floor of a tech unicorn is the dream for most global leaders - but Raghul left it behind for something better: balance.
🪄 That’s the magic of remote work.
But it wasn’t always smooth sailing. Just a year ago, Raghul hit a wall and burnt out hard. He took a bold step: a 10-week career break to reset and rebuild.
When he returned, he leveraged AI automation to streamline his work, delivering results so strong he didn’t just recover - he got promoted.
Because at Trilogy, one thing matters above all: results.
“Making your own role redundant would elevate you, not replace you,” says Raghul.
Here’s how he made it happen:
🚧 Set boundaries and prioritize clear communication to avoid burnout
🏃 Bias toward action by building scalable systems that deliver fast
🧠 Use AI and automation to stay ahead and elevate your career
Remote work isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. But Raghul’s story proves that for the right person it’s a direct line to career harmony.
From parenting on shifts to crushing tight deadlines, this episode will leave you inspired to rewrite the rules of leadership - and your life.
