About

I build and scale products at the intersection of AI, e-commerce, supply chain and retail operations. Across 9+ years at More Retail, Amazon and Mu Sigma, I have led 0→1 product development and scaled consumer, platform and decision-system products. My experience spans AI-powered customer support, grocery commerce, demand forecasting, pricing, inventory optimization and operational applications. At More Retail, I have: • Built an AI-first customer-support platform that consolidated 10+ fragmented channels, deflected approximately 50% of tickets and reduced agent dependency from 15 to 6. • Launched a demand-aware inventory reallocation engine that reduced milk waste by approximately 30%, generating approximately ₹3 Cr in annualized impact. • Redesigned F&V indenting models, reducing waste from approximately 15% to 6% while maintaining availability. • Helped scale the grocery application to 20K peak daily orders and 1M+ downloads, while enabling a rapid transition to 30-minute quick-commerce delivery windows. • Owned pricing and operational platforms spanning Amazon pricing, picker productivity, centralized operations and digital-commerce expansion. I combine product strategy with strong technical and analytical depth. I work across engineering, data science, operations, category, marketing and business leadership to turn ambiguous problems into scalable products and measurable outcomes. Alongside product delivery, I mentor BAs and APMs, contribute to hiring and build product and analytics capability through structured SQL and Python training programs. I am particularly energized by complex products where customer experience, unit economics and operational scale must be solved together.
