About

Product Manager who connects strategy, users and execution.

15+ years across EdTech, GovTech and FinTech — now building a product career to match. I've spent over a decade running programs, managing multi-stakeholder deliveries and solving operational problems at scale: government skilling initiatives, digital delivery systems and B2B platforms.

Those roles required the same thinking a PM does every day — understand the problem, prioritise ruthlessly, align stakeholders and ship. Now I'm channelling that operational depth into direct product ownership: PRDs, roadmaps, RICE prioritisation, user research and Agile delivery.

Recent outcomes: 40% reduction in subsidy processing time on a GovTech platform (ATAMS), 15% reduction in project delivery cycle time across cross-functional teams, and an NSQF skilling rollout scaled across 44 schools, 23 districts and 10,000+ learners in Assam.

Product Teardowns

How I Think About Products

Teardowns I wrote to pressure-test product judgement: funnels, monetisation and retention mechanics on products millions of people use.

IRCTC

Funnel analysis · Competitive benchmarking

Problem
Booking is high-intent but the funnel loses users before ticket confirmation.
Observation
Funnel analysis across the booking journey, benchmarked against competing booking experiences.
Opportunity
Reduce drop-off at the highest-friction steps of a journey users are already committed to.
Recommendation
Five prioritised improvement recommendations drawn from the funnel and benchmarking analysis.

Google Maps

Monetisation · Product mechanics

Problem
A utility used constantly, where monetisation must not erode trust in the core map.
Observation
Analysis of monetisation surfaces and the underlying product mechanics that make them viable.
Opportunity
Monetisation that rides on genuine user intent rather than interrupting it.
Recommendation
Findings on where monetisation and product mechanics reinforce each other, and where they conflict.

Blinkit

Retention mechanics · Monetisation

Problem
Quick commerce competes on habit; retention economics decide the outcome.
Observation
Analysis of retention mechanics alongside the monetisation model.
Opportunity
Strengthen repeat behaviour without buying it purely through discounting.
Recommendation
Retention and monetisation findings framed as product levers.

Product Management Framework

Agentic AI

I don't just talk about AI agents — this site runs on them

Two live AI agents power this portfolio, and agentic AI is core to how I build products. Try the chat assistant in the corner, or the job-fit analyzer below.

Portfolio AI assistant

This site runs a live AI agent that answers recruiter questions about my experience, case studies and skills — grounded only in real portfolio evidence, never invented claims.

Job-fit analysis agent

Paste any PM job description and an agent maps requirements to my evidence: matches, honest gaps, and interview talking points — in seconds.

Agentic workflows in product

I design products that use LLM agents for document processing, subsidy verification and learner support — with human-in-the-loop guardrails and measurable accuracy targets.

AI-forward PM practice

I use AI agents daily for discovery synthesis, PRD drafting, teardown research and guesstimates — shipping faster without sacrificing rigor.
