Results-driven professional transitioning into Product Management in fintech.
What I'm looking for
With over 10 years of experience in the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector, I am a results-driven professional now transitioning into Product Management. My focus is on fintech, SaaS, and API-driven digital banking solutions, where I leverage my expertise in customer-centric solutioning and product analytics. I hold certifications in Product Management from ISB and Google Data Analytics, which have equipped me with the necessary skills to excel in this field.
Throughout my career, I have collaborated with product and tech teams to enhance lending, payments, and trade finance offerings. My experience as a Senior Relationship Manager at Kotak Mahindra Bank has allowed me to work closely on digital banking and API-based workflows, while my previous roles at Axis Bank and IndusInd Bank have honed my ability to analyze client data and co-design innovative financial products. I am passionate about building solutions that not only meet customer needs but also drive business growth.
