Product & Operations leader blending data-driven product management with growth and operations experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a product-focused manager with hands-on experience building data-driven products and scaling operations across consumer and B2B contexts.
I've led cross-functional teams in product, tech, design and operations to deliver measurable outcomes—improving conversion by 15%, raising completion rates from 40% to 51%, and scaling AUM to INR 5.13 Cr.
My background spans product management, analytics and early-stage startup leadership: I built dashboards and automations with SQL and Python, executed SEO and web-tracking strategies, and implemented API-driven integrations to improve user experience.
I prioritize pragmatic, metrics-led decision making, collaborative stakeholder management, and building repeatable processes that drive growth and operational efficiency.
