What I'm looking for

I’m looking for senior product leadership roles where I can own product strategy and delivery governance, translate AI/ML into compliant customer value, and scale enterprise platform transformation with cross-functional teams across geographies.

I’m a product leader with 25 years of progressive experience—starting as a practising developer and advancing through every layer of the organisation to Head of Product. That developer-to-director arc is a differentiator: my product strategy is grounded in direct engineering experience, enabling pragmatic build-vs-buy decisions and roadmap plans that match what teams can truly deliver.

Since 2023, I’ve operated as de facto Head of Product across multiple AI/ML ventures—building GenAI and LLM-powered solutions with compliance-aware evaluation frameworks (including hallucination mitigation, human review thresholds, and user trust mechanisms). Previously, as a Senior Product Manager, I led enterprise cloud transformation and AI/ML programmes for Fortune 500 clients, driving 95%+ on-time delivery across 8+ time zones and improving programme predictability by 30% through governance frameworks. I bring cross-industry domain fluency across BFSI, manufacturing, logistics, ecommerce, and healthcare, supported by board certification from India’s Ministry of Corporate Affairs and a governance-aware, commercially grounded approach.
