## Headline

Figuring Things Out \| AI Products & Agentic Workflows \| PM × Engineer \| Shipping practical AI experiments

## About

I’m a product manager focused on the intersection of data, platforms, and applied AI\. I’m drawn to problems where user needs are ambiguous, tradeoffs are real, and the product has to earn its place\. My current focus is AI agents: workflow design, evals, reliability, human handoffs, and what separates a useful system from a polished demo\. Currently at Nielsen leading Digital Content Ratings product that process billions of content data points across EMEA, APAC & North America markets making multi millions revenue\. By day: Enterprise SaaS\. Measurement infrastructure\. Billion\-scale data products\. By night: I build AI tools, test every new model that drops, and ship side projects with proper builder energy\. Before Nielsen, I spent 24 months at Altimetrik and 18 months build a company that didn't work out fundamentally, pivoted to service model \( $20K MRR\)\. Learned more from that failure than MBA could teach me/I could learn from success\. I write about: → AI tools I actually tested \(with results, not hype\) → PM frameworks from real enterprise product work → Builder logs from my side projects → What's happening in India's AI ecosystem If you want to see what happens when a PM gets their hands dirty building with AI, building measurement products at scale, and sharing the real lessons; stick around\. 10K\+ PMs, founders, and builders already do\.
