I am a Product Leader with over 8 years of experience building scalable fintech and B2B SaaS platforms. Currently, at Zeta, I lead PM teams in the PIXEL Studio, overseeing complex initiatives including the HDFC Pixel credit card program, Credit Line on UPI, and the Tachyon Rewards platform. My expertise spans the entire product stack, from core infrastructure and fraud systems to consumer-facing rewards and credit products. I specialize in aligning cross-functional stakeholders—spanning banking, operations, and compliance—to deliver high-impact product ecosystems. Driven by a commitment to operational excellence, I am passionate about utilizing AI-driven tools to enhance product documentation and decision-making rigor at scale.
