About

Product Manager with 4+ years of experience building and scaling products across fintech, consumer tech and EdTech, with a strong focus on end-to-end execution and system-level problem solving. At ICICI Bank, I worked on the Bank Plugin, driving features across payments, reconciliation, and collections. I led initiatives like Bulk Payments and Collection 2.0, working closely with engineering, compliance, and business teams to ship scalable solutions in a highly regulated environment for more than 20,000 corporate customers. Prior to that, at VerSe Innovation (Josh), I worked on building and shipping features to drive user reactivation and retention through data-driven experimentation for 100M+ users. More recently, I built Offtute, a tutor discovery platform, where I: • Led 0→1 build of Offtute, owning everything from problem discovery and user validation to execution, launch, and early conversions • Built early funnel: 1100+ parent outreach → 70+ demo sessions → ~20% conversion to paid users • Established a curated tutor network by onboarding and evaluating 20+ tutors • Designed a tutor matching and pricing system with seamless replacement and prorated payments I enjoy working on problems that require connecting systems, understanding user behavior deeply, and executing end-to-end in ambiguous environments. Currently exploring product roles focused on 0→1 building, growth, and solving complex system-level challenges.
