About

Scaled products to 30M+ users, $100M+ monthly transactions, and 5M+ merchants across healthcare, fintech, and e-commerce SaaS. P&L owner. Built and led cross-functional teams of 20+ across US, UK, and India. What I do differently: I operate as a P&L owner, not a feature factory PM. Every product I've led has shipped with measurable business impact — 70% default reduction, 60% auth improvement, $1.5M+ cost savings, 40% MoM growth. The numbers across my last 4 roles: → CLOZOM (Current): Built 5-vertical healthcare AI platform from zero to 50,000+ users. Shipped GenAI medical assistant — 85% accuracy, 90%+ retention. Recruited PM team from scratch. 100M+ monthly organic impressions cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Grok, and Copilot. → OTPless ($6.5M funded): Transformed authentication success rates by 60% for 30M+ user platform. 5,000+ enterprise clients. 20,000+ developers on SDK.

Eliminated 70% loan defaults via AI credit scoring. Compressed loan processing 7 days → 24 hours. Global delivery across US, UK, and India. Also delivered 25% inventory cost reduction for Action TESA ($200M+ revenue manufacturer) as concurrent AI product lead — influenced CEO to replace 15-year legacy process. I operate as a P&L owner, not a feature factory PM. Built and led global cross-functional organizations of 20+ across engineering, design, data science, and growth. Recruited and built multiple product teams from scratch. C-suite stakeholder management across Fortune 500 and Sequoia/Lightspeed-backed startups. Currently exploring Principal Product Manager → Group Product Manager → Director of Product → VP of Product → Head of Product → Chief Product Officer opportunities at companies building AI-first products at scale. Passionate about turning 0-to-1 product visions into $100M+ businesses. Open to Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, or Remote. Let's connect - aba21kaushal@iima.ac.in
