# Ashesh Ayush Mishra on Tal

## Headline

Senior Product Manager \| Platform Governance &amp; AI Systems \| RAG, Multi\-Agent, LLM Guardrails \| B2B SaaS

## About

Senior PM with 10 years across engineering and product, including 6\+ years building the governance and operational infrastructure that B2B SaaS platforms scale on\. At Builder\.ai, I owned the Expert Journey platform across its full lifecycle: expert allocation, vendor onboarding, financial controls, and delivery governance\. That work delivered $6M in annual vendor cost reduction, 47% fewer allocation errors, and re\-engineered a $36M invoice reconciliation workflow across 3 global entities\. I managed 1 direct report and mentored 3\-4 PMs, and defined OKRs with the VP of Product with 90%\+ quarterly attainment\. Most recently, I led 0\-to\-1 MVP delivery for a conversational AI platform at Eshal\.ai, shipping RAG\-based knowledge infrastructure and a configurable AI guardrails layer across 4 industry presets \(GDPR, HIPAA, MENA, FSI\) that contributed to ISO 27001 certification and UAE PDPL and GDPR compliance\. Earlier at Walmart, I launched a reconciliation MVP processing 15M\+ invoices across the US, Japan, and India\. My engineering background at Infosys gives me the technical foundation to work credibly with engineering teams on complex platform and AI infrastructure problems\. I target Senior PM and AI PM roles where platform governance, operational scale, and AI systems are central\.
