I build 0→1 fintech and AI products that improve onboarding, conversion, and regulated customer journeys.
What I'm looking for
At Fincart Financial Planners, I owned 0→1 wealth, insurance, and AI products, leading a 10–12-person cross-functional squad across roadmap, PRDs, RICE prioritisation, OKRs, and delivery.
I built a Salesforce-integrated LMS that increased lead conversion from 1–2% to 8–9% across a 40K pipeline, and scaled self-serve onboarding from 10 to 400+ clients monthly while reducing advisor intervention by about 80%. I also grew MAU 2.2x in three months through Firebase push, SMSby2 re-engagement, and Mixpanel-led iteration.
My software engineering foundation helps me move from user pain to shipped product: I’ve built transaction and advisory platforms, designed compliant eKYC, AML/PMLA, audit-trail, and fallback-routing flows, and now ship AI products end-to-end independently.
