I’m a Fintech Product Manager with 4+ years of experience building and scaling digital products across payments, digital onboarding, lending, and merchant acquiring in regulated BFSI environments. Currently at Bajaj Finserv, I own pan-India, enterprise-scale B2B and B2C platforms across merchant onboarding, RBI-compliant payment journeys, POS, QR, and EMI rails. My role spans end-to-end product ownership—from vision and roadmap to delivery, GTM execution, and portfolio-level KPI governance—working closely with Engineering, Risk, Compliance, Legal, Sales, and Business teams. I specialize in translating RBI regulations and compliance mandates into scalable, audit-ready product capabilities, while driving measurable impact across acquisition, activation, monetization, and revenue growth. I bring strong analytics and commercial acumen, with hands-on experience in AOP planning, funnel optimization, and data-driven decision-making using BI tools and dashboards. Earlier in my career, I worked in product and business roles within retail and digital commerce, building strong foundations in customer experience, GTM execution, and P&L ownership—skills I now apply to fintech product leadership. I’m interested in senior product roles where I can build high-impact, compliant platforms at scale, and increasingly explore AI-enabled product intelligence and automation.
