Entrepreneur in Residence \| Ex APM \| Gen AI \| Strategy Consultant \| IIFT’24 \| Economics, Trade and Finance

## About

I'm an Associate Product Manager and Chief of Staff at DevKraft Technologies, working directly with the CEO across product, growth, sales, and partnerships\. My day\-to\-day spans a mix of building and operating\. On the product side, I've led end\-to\-end development of AI platforms from concept to launch, including Chanakya \(an AI HR platform\), an AI Insurance Claim Assistant, and a data analytics and dashboarding platform for a global sports and athleisure conglomerate across the US, Europe, and Netherlands\. On the strategy and operations side, I've helped set up the company's growth, sales, and partnerships function, run go\-to\-market for new products, and led our presence at GITEX Global 2025\. Before DevKraft, I worked as an Associate Economist at Elara Capital on macro and trade research, and contributed to a research project with the Ministry of Commerce on India's FTAs\. I'm an MA Economics graduate from IIFT, with a specialization in Trade and Finance\. What I enjoy most is working at the intersection of strategy and execution, taking ambiguous problems, structuring them, and driving them to outcomes\. I'm equally comfortable in a deck, a sprint planning session, or a client conversation\. Currently exploring opportunities in Founder's Office, Chief of Staff, Business Operations, Strategy, Product Management, and VC/growth investing roles\. Always open to a conversation\.
