Travel-tech and fintech leader building embedded ancillaries, partnerships, and high-margin distribution.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am a travel-tech and fintech leader with 17 years' experience building and scaling embedded ancillary and protection products across airlines, OTAs, telecom and fintech ecosystems. I specialize in creating zero-friction, underwritten products and turning non-core services into high-margin revenue streams.
I have co-created and launched multiple products from concept to launch, including automated flight delay benefits (Delay Care), lost luggage concierge, and CarbonX sustainability ancillaries, working closely with underwriters, actuarial partners, and global distribution platforms.
My partnership-first growth approach has delivered measurable results: securing enterprise deals with airlines and OTAs, validating new geographies (including Kazakhstan), and driving rapid revenue growth (20% month-on-month improvement through bundle restructuring and embedded logic).
I lead cross-functional teams, mentor talent, and design GTM, underwriting, pricing, and claims workflows. I seek roles where I can embed protection and ancillary products, scale partnerships, and create meaningful commercial impact.
