What I'm looking for

I seek a product leadership role where I can apply Agile practices, drive roadmap strategy, and use data to increase user engagement and business impact.

I am a results-driven, certified Professional Scrum Product Owner with over seven years delivering high-impact digital products across fintech, SaaS, and FMCG domains. I specialize in Agile/Scrum product delivery, strategic roadmap execution, and stakeholder engagement to drive adoption and measurable business outcomes.

At Wellington Management I led the end-to-end lifecycle of a customer-facing investment tracking application used by 10,000+ users, improved feature delivery time by 15%, increased user engagement by 20%, and raised NPS by 8 points through design-thinking and data analysis. Previously, I introduced OKRs and WSJF frameworks at Techoya, launched two products within 12 months, achieved a 95% on-time release rate, and improved ROI and product adoption substantially.

I combine technical fluency in Jira, Confluence, SQL, Google Analytics, and Tableau with strong analytical and cross-functional leadership—optimizing processes, reducing defects, and aligning teams to business goals. I am motivated to build customer-centric products that scale and deliver measurable value.
