What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product role where I can lead AI-driven product strategy, scale API platforms, partner across ecosystems, and drive measurable adoption and P&L improvement in a growth-focused, data-informed team.

I am an Associate Director in Product Management with 8.5 years of experience building AI-powered products and scalable platforms for B2C FinTechs and B2B SaaS. I lead distributed agile teams, define product strategy and drive end-to-end roadmaps from ideation to market launch.

At Jio Financial Services I led lending product strategy, partnerships and AI/identity initiatives, forging 52 PropTech integrations and improving platform reliability and onboarding TAT. Previously I delivered API-led onboarding growth at Protean and owned KYC and verification product P&L at IDfy, achieving measurable adoption, cost reductions and margin improvements.

I combine technical grounding from a B.Tech in Computer Science with an MBA in Marketing to translate data-driven insights into product decisions that boost adoption, improve P&L and accelerate go-to-market outcomes.
