Loan Management System (LMS) Product Manager | Lending Infrastructure & Co-Lending | Loan Lifecycle, Repayment Schedules, NACH Reconciliation | ₹1,800 Cr+ AUM

About

I'm a Loan Management System (LMS) Product Manager who owns the core infrastructure lenders run their disbursement, repayment, and collections lifecycle on — not just the requirements layer, but the business rules, data models, and production reliability underneath it. At Wortgage Finance (WeRize), I own the LMS end-to-end for a platform managing ₹1,800 Cr+ in live AUM. I define the calculation logic — interest/principal allocation, charges, penalties, overdue interest — design the data models engineering builds against, and stay in production to debug real loan-data issues using SQL when something breaks. What I focus on as a Lending Product Manager: → Co-lending infrastructure — architected LMS-side workflows for partner disbursement sharing, repayment sharing, and reconciliation across multiple co-lending partners; own the post-disbursement partner relationship end-to-end, including partner escalations. → Loan Against Property (LAP) — designed and built this module from scratch, including a multi-tranche repayment schedule (RPS) framework. → Payments & NACH reconciliation — implemented Razorpay/NACH integration inside the LMS (+6.5% NACH presentation collection) and built the reconciliation layer between the gateway and the LMS, closing co-lender repayment gaps. → Data governance — own all core LMS tables, with 10+ validation checks and audit queries to keep loan and charge-creation data reliable at scale. Before this, at IndiaP2P I took a borrower app from 0→1 (60% adoption among existing borrowers) and turned internal lending tools into a modular, multi-tenant SaaS platform — the same platform-thinking I now apply to LMS architecture. I sit at the intersection of product, deep lending-domain knowledge, and enough technical fluency (SQL, PostgreSQL, API design, data modelling) to make real build decisions — not just pass requirements downstream.
