# Mahendra B on Tal

## Headline

Vibing with Claude \| AI\-Native Product Builder \| Ex Paytm, Paytm Money \| IIM Ahmedabad

## About

My path into product started with code\. I spent two years as an Android developer before figuring out that what I really wanted was to be closer to the why \- why we're building this, for whom, and whether it's actually working\. Since then: a logistics startup, an IIM Ahmedabad MBA, three years across Paytm and Paytm Money \(subscription systems, consumer loyalty, fund management\), and now Nextuple, where I work on omnichannel order management products for large retailers\. Outside of work, I've been deep in AI\. Building LLM\-based games, tinkering with agents, slowly turning Obsidian into a second brain\. Not because it's strategically useful \- just because I find it genuinely fascinating and I can't stop\. I think that's how you actually understand where technology is going\. When I'm not doing any of that: Acquired, Lenny's Podcast, cricket, F1, and an embarrassing number of TV shows\. If something on my profile caught your eye or you just want to talk product please reach out\.
