Fintech Associate Product Manager blending user research, SQL, and experimentation to drive activation and efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Associate Product Manager focused on fintech SaaS and product-led growth. I turn customer insights into PRDs, funnels into experiments, and results into measurable activation and retention improvements.
In my current role at TapQwik, I spearheaded 3 core fintech initiatives—improving onboarding funnel by 25% and accelerating time-to-revenue for 100+ MSMEs. I’ve also reduced drop-offs by 20% by running 15+ user interviews and A/B tests to boost activation by 15%.
I’m deeply data-driven and hands-on: I build Mixpanel dashboards and SQL reports to guide decisions, and I use experimentation, hypothesis testing, and funnel analytics to validate what works. I also streamlined KYC and verification flows with cross-functional teams, cutting process time by 30% and improving conversion.
Previously, as a Software Engineer Intern, I delivered AI and analytics work—from an AI-powered resume matcher prototype using LLMs/cosine similarity with Streamlit UI to building real-time fintech microservices and fraud detection REST APIs. Outside work, I bring the same discipline and resilience—National Gold Medalist in Karate—into leadership and problem-solving.
