Product manager with an engineering and SRE foundation. Working at the intersection of systems thinking and business precision.
I’m a product manager with an engineering and SRE foundation. I work on the parts of products most people quietly avoid: the activation that bleeds users, the compliance gap that stops a deal, the infrastructure decision that becomes a product decision three months later.
Five years as an engineer and SRE at American Express before moving into product. That background means I take seriously what’s happening inside the system: uptime, latency, graceful degradation. Users blame the product when the database is slow.
I understand how systems fail. I understand why compliance matters. I understand what moves business metrics. And I execute.
Looking for the next challenge. B2B, FinTech, or AI-first. Based in Bangalore, India.
Why guests still don’t know Airbnb sells experiences. Discovery audit, three concept tests, one shippable surface bet. PDF write-up.
CRED’s secondary surfaces are dense and underused. Mapped the discovery problem, prioritised by ROI, picked one bet. PDF write-up.
Find where users spend the most time that frustrates them. Not feature requests. Not leadership opinions. Time leakage is where pain is legible and upside is measurable.
Make the decision criteria explicit first. Most alignment failures aren’t communication failures. They’re clarity failures. Once the model is visible and people agree on criteria, the decision follows naturally.
Every decision is a choice to not do something else. Name it. You’re choosing X over Y because of Z. If Z changes, everyone knows we revisit the decision.
