Ankur bhatnagar
@ankurbhatnagar
Senior Product Manager shipping LLM-integrated GenAI products and AI platform transformations at scale.
What I'm looking for
I’ve owned end-to-end product strategy and AI/ML delivery across B2B SaaS, D2C/B2C eCommerce, ERP, and HCM ecosystems, turning ambiguous customer problems into sharp product bets.
At Publicis Resources (Marcel AI Platform), I led the AI product lifecycle—from discovery and LLM integration through production release, eval frameworks, responsible AI compliance, and adoption measurement—across 15+ geographies. I also redesigned the AI-driven onboarding and activation funnel and governed roadmap delivery using OKRs and metrics like MAU retention, NPS, and activation.
Earlier, I built and evolved D2C and platform experiences at Aditya Birla Fashion & Retail and Tech Mahindra (SOCIO Social CRM), including GTM planning, PRDs with acceptance criteria, A/B testing, third-party integrations, and funnel optimization. I bring the same outcome-based, sprint-hygiene approach to SaaS and eCommerce platform delivery, with a strong emphasis on measurable adoption and trust.
