Product Manager and startup operator building AI-powered B2B/B2C platforms and payments experiences.
What I'm looking for
I’m a product leader and startup operator with 11+ years of experience building and scaling B2B and B2C products across SaaS, fintech, consumer payments, and AI-powered edtech. I thrive on technically complex systems and tight feedback loops—turning user needs, partner constraints, and compliance realities into clear product workflows that ship, improve, and scale.
Recently, as a co-founder leading product and technology at Experiment Labs, I built and launched a 0-to-1 AI-powered applied learning SaaS platform, designing AI-driven evaluation and recommendation workflows to guide student outcomes while learning iteratively from students and consultants. I established product development processes from scratch, led a 7-member engineering/product/design team, and scaled revenue to $100K+ while landing marquee customers like LeverageEdu and PhysicsWallah. Previously at Airbase, I led 0-to-1 launches of Corporate Cards products with AMEX and SVB, driving $3M+ ARR across 250+ customers, and I improved adoption and retention by shipping card workflows, spend attribution, and merchant-/card-level spend controls for 2,000+ customers processing $2B+ annual payment volume. Earlier at Airtel Payments Bank, I built and launched an Open Banking API platform and led cross-border remittance work (including Western Union integration), contributing to $5B+ payments annually from 100+ customers, improving retention, and increasing account balances by 5x—while translating complex partner/customer requirements into product specifications and execution plans.
