What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can drive end-to-end AI/ML product development, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and solve real-world problems at scale. I value ownership, innovation, and opportunities to work on impactful products that blend data, user needs, and business strategy.

I’m an AI Product Manager with 4.5+ years of experience in Data Science and Machine Learning, previously at Johnson & Johnson and TCS (USA). I’ve led end-to-end development of enterprise-grade NLP and analytics products, handling large-scale datasets (3TB+), collaborating with cross-functional global teams, and delivering measurable business outcomes.

My core strengths lie in combining user-centric thinking with deep technical insight to build AI-driven solutions that solve real business problems. I'm well-versed in agile product development, stakeholder management, and translating complex AI/ML ideas into tangible features.

Currently, I’m focused on AI product strategy, especially in domains like productivity tools, healthcare, and enterprise SaaS. I’m passionate about building impactful, scalable products at the intersection of data, technology, and user experience.
