AI-native builder turning agent orchestration into shipped, revenue-generating AI products end to end.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AI-native builder and former AI/ML team lead (CoForge) with 10+ years across enterprise AI and two ventures built from zero. I turn ideas into shipped, revenue-generating products by orchestrating AI agents end-to-end—product, AI build, cloud, and growth—at team speed.
As Director & Product Owner at Ixyle AI, I own the product end-to-end for an AI recruiter and interview-coaching platform, delivering 35,000+ assessments across 20 institutions and improving turnaround speed by ~40%. I built an AI proctoring engine using computer vision (phone/object/gaze/head-turn detection) feeding automated scoring and reporting, plus real-time interview experiences on LiveKit with cloud recording and downstream AI analysis.
I also lead the commercialization: launching a recurring subscription model with paywall + automated UPI billing, and driving acquisition through Google & Meta Ads with funnel/conversion optimization. Operating production on Azure (AKS/Container Apps) with blue-green deploys, feature flags, and App Insights observability, I cut infrastructure cost ~25% via serverless, prompt optimization, and autoscaling.
I previously ran InventtEd (Director & Product Owner), shipping an MVP in 90 days and increasing engagement by 30% through data-driven iteration. Earlier at CoForge, I led a 20-person AI/ML delivery team building 10+ production-grade NLP and computer-vision models for Fortune-500 BFSI clients, and I was recognized with the CoForge Award of Excellence (top 3% of performers). I’ve also filed a patent for a multimodal candidate-screening AI and been selected for Forbes India Top 200 Most Promising Startups, including a government MoU + state employability pilot (Arunachal Pradesh).
