About

I’m a Product Strategy and Growth leader with experience scaling revenue, conversion, retention, and monetization across ecommerce, marketplaces, and consumer tech. Currently, I work at noon as a Growth Strategy Manager, where I lead product-led growth initiatives across categories and zones. I partner closely with product, design, commercial, and analytics teams to improve onsite discovery, CRO, funnel performance, user engagement, retention, and GMV through data-driven experimentation, customer insight, and execution. Previously, I was at Bain & Company, where I was fast-tracked to Project Leader and led strategy and analytics engagements across consumer, retail, and digital businesses. I managed teams, owned end-to-end problem solving, and worked with senior stakeholders to translate complex analysis into product, growth, and business strategy. My experience sits at the intersection of product strategy, growth, analytics, and execution with a strong focus on identifying user and business opportunities, prioritizing high-impact initiatives, and driving measurable outcomes across the customer funnel. Core strengths: • Product and growth strategy • Ecommerce and marketplace growth • Funnel optimization and conversion rate improvement • User lifecycle, retention, and monetization • Onsite discovery, merchandising, and personalization • Experimentation, analytics, and data-driven decision making • Cross-functional leadership and stakeholder management Tools: Google analytics, SQL, Python, Tableau, Power BI, Excel, R, Alteryx, Qualtrics, dashboards, and advanced analytics I enjoy building and scaling products and growth initiatives that solve real customer problems and create measurable business impact. Open to roles in Product Strategy, Growth Product, Product Operations, and Product Management across ecommerce, marketplaces, and consumer technology. Always open to meaningful conversations - feel free to reach out at mayanvkumar@gmail.com.
