IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a product-driven professional with hands-on experience building and scaling platform and infrastructure-backed digital products across healthcare and large-scale DOOH media. I led zero-to-one digital transformations—turning traditional bus shelters into LED-enabled smart media, deploying digital assets across Mumbai Metro, and conceiving an in-house ad management platform while driving programmatic advertising adoption.
I own end-to-end delivery, from requirements and cross-functional coordination to high-availability systems and compliance. I have led ISO 27001 and SOC 2 implementations, managed vendor and budget relationships, and delivered creative, measurable campaigns and internal tools that improved operational efficiency and governance.
