## About

I’m a product manager with 7\+ years work experience , building AI\-native experiences in the public sector\. At OpenGov, I work on the Permitting & Licensing Suite, where I independently lead several feature areas — turning user research into shipped features in close collaboration with design, engineering, and customer\-facing teams\. My focus is full\-loop product development: conducting customer interviews, analyzing Aha\! inputs, shaping roadmaps, prototyping, driving releases, and tracking impact through tools like Pendo and FullStory\. I also build AI\-enhanced workflows and copilots, applying LLMs to real\-world use cases across both internal operations and customer\-facing capabilities\. Previously, I helped build India’s first Cross border Trade finance platform and worked as an Intelligent Automation consultant at PwC\. I am a B\.Tech graduate from IIT Kharagpur
