# Palak Kejriwal on Tal

## Headline

Transitioning PM \| AI/ML &amp; B2B SaaS \| Led product discovery for 200M\-record migration \| 4 years @ ZopSmart

## About

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\.
