Sharad Jain
@sharadjain1
AI product leader driving ML-enabled platforms that accelerate data-driven decisions and automation.
What I'm looking for
I am an AI and product leader with deep experience building ML infrastructure, conversational AI agents, and data-driven payment platforms for consumer and enterprise customers. I combine hands-on technical execution with product strategy to deliver measurable business outcomes.
I've led end-to-end product efforts at startups and large organizations, including architecting enterprise AI platforms that convert natural language business questions into executable queries, building real-time voice AI agents with production-grade audio pipelines, and launching payment orchestration systems that supported $5M+ in transactions.
My work emphasizes measurable impact: faster development cycles, higher platform adoption, reduced fraud and payment failures, and improved model deployment velocity. I prioritize cross-functional collaboration, robust MLOps, and shipping secure, scalable systems that drive user and business value.
