I'm a product manager in transition — with 4 years of hands-on PM work embedded inside an engineering title. At ZopSmart, I owned the product roadmap and end-to-end discovery for two of the company's highest-stakes initiatives: a 200M+ customer record data migration for Kroger (zero-rollback, 99% integrity), and a cross-company merger evaluation that went to the Board of Directors. Neither started as a PM brief. I turned both into structured discovery cycles — defining acceptance criteria, aligning Legal, Engineering, and Product across 3 stakeholder groups, and translating ambiguous technical constraints into prioritized decisions. That's the work I want to do full-time. I'm building toward PM roles in AI/ML products and enterprise SaaS. I've deepened my PM craft independently — I've shipped a PRD and pitch deck for SentinelAI, an AI Governance and Orchestration concept with a live Claude API demo, personas, OKRs, GTM strategy, and roadmap. What I bring that most PMs don't: I can read the code, design the system, and still run the user research. I close the gap between what engineering says is possible and what users actually need. Open to PM, APM, and Technical PM roles in Bengaluru/Hyderabad/Pune — especially teams building AI-native products or working in B2B SaaS infrastructure.
