## About

I’m a Product Manager working at the intersection of AI, B2B SaaS, and product strategy\. At AlgoShack, I work in the Founder’s Office and lead product and strategy for algoQA, an AI\-Augmented Autonomous Quality Engineering platform used by 35\+ enterprise customers\. My work spans the full product lifecycle — AI and agentic roadmap, customer discovery, onboarding and activation, pricing and packaging, product analytics, growth, positioning, analyst relations and go\-to\-market\. Some of the problems I’ve worked on include rebuilding SaaS onboarding around a clear activation metric, redesigning pricing from a largely undifferentiated enterprise model into tiered SaaS plans, shaping an agentic AI roadmap, introducing AI/RAG evaluation into the product strategy, and building product analytics from the ground up\. Before AlgoShack, I was a Product Manager at Faclon Labs, working on an industrial IoT SaaS platform, and spent 3\.5 years at Wipro across software delivery and quality engineering\. I also enjoy building products myself\. I’ve built AI products including Case Buddy, an AI\-assisted case practice platform, and other side projects using Claude, Gemini, RAG, Firebase and modern AI development tools\. I completed my PGDM from XLRI Jamshedpur, where I was on the Dean’s Merit List — Top 10 in the batch\. I’m particularly interested in AI Product Management, B2B SaaS, Product Growth and Agentic AI\.

My scope spans roadmap, onboarding, pricing, analytics, growth, positioning, customer discovery and go\-to\-market, reporting directly to the CEO\. AlgoShack Technologies is an AI\-native product company redefining how the world builds and ships software \- starting with the part most companies get wrong: testing\. Founded in 2018 in Bengaluru and entirely bootstrapped, AlgoShack has grown at 55% CAGR for four consecutive years without a rupee of external funding\. Not because the market is easy \- but because the product earns it\. Its flagship platform, algoQA, is trusted by global enterprises in Medical Devices, Banking, Retail, and Enterprise Software\. AlgoShack was built by people who have spent decades delivering software in environments where failure is not an option \- regulated industries, mission\-critical systems, global enterprises\. That depth of experience is what separates the architecture of algoQA from tools built by people who have only ever seen the problem from the outside\.
