AI Product Manager | Agentic AI & LLM Products | Built 9 Products by Directing AI Agents | Industrial & Engineering AI | B2B SaaS & ERP |

About

I build AI-native products for engineering and manufacturing, and I ship them fast: hands-on prototyping with Claude Code and AI agents, end to end. 16 years across manufacturing, entrepreneurship and AI product management: 9+ years selling engineered power-generation equipment, 3 years as a founder building two SaaS products from scratch, then leading a Salesforce product team, and since 2023, AI Product Manager. What I've built and owned: • 9 products, including an 11-stage induction-motor design platform (2,000+ automated tests), a generator design platform, a hydro-turbine selection engine over 400+ historical projects that reproduced a certified selection exactly, a PCB data tool, a multi-tenant recruitment SaaS, and a modern .NET 8 ERP rebuild (phase 1 in 3 weeks, 153 APIs). • A governed AI-agent SDLC that takes an idea or spec to approved screens. Hostile reviews and audits on the products it built surfaced and struck agent fabrications (29 findings, 83 defects). How I work: • Evals and metrics before features: I define success metrics and quality gates for AI output, and designed a 31-query retrieval benchmark with 4 negative controls and rejected a high-recall method because it failed the controls. • Data over opinion: tested the hypothesis in ~65 live runs, proved no design could pass, and changed a core gating policy. • Scope discipline: cut a customer deliverable set from 13 documents to the 5 buyers use; killed features that weren't fit for production. • Cost and speed: moved an AI-agent workflow from fan-out to a pinned engine, cutting runs from 70 minutes to 9. • Responsible AI: negotiated a customer SoW with a clean IP split and a data clause for agentic-AI tools; human-in-the-loop sign-off on AI output. Commercial depth: led a team of 11 account executives to 30% annual revenue growth, and helped win refurbishment projects worth 150 million INR.
