Director of Product Management with 14+ years building and scaling digital platforms across OTT streaming, fintech, and telecom — from early-stage 0-to-1 builds to enterprise-scale platform strategy. I lead the full product lifecycle for high-traffic, revenue-critical systems: live sports streaming, payment ecosystems, and subscriber management at national scale. Over the last three years, I've directed product strategy and cross-functional teams (engineering, design, business) to launch and scale 15+ products, translating business strategy into roadmaps that hold up under real user load and real P&L pressure. Earlier in my career at Paytm, I helped build wallet ecosystem infrastructure for international markets — owning requirements, PRDs/BRDs, and UX from concept to launch. What I bring to a Director/Group PM seat: -- Platform strategy & roadmapping for high-scale consumer platforms (OTT, fintech) -- Monetization models and subscriber/payment ecosystem design -- Cross-functional and org leadership — aligning engineering, design, and business stakeholders around a single roadmap -- Data-informed decision-making using Mixpanel, Google Analytics, and MUX for product and streaming-quality metrics -- Technical fluency across platform architecture, enabling credible partnership with engineering leadership I'm energized by problems at the intersection of scale, monetization, and user trust — and I'm always open to conversations about building for growth. Let's connect.
