About

I’m a Technical Product Manager with 10+ years of experience spanning product engineering, backend platforms, and cross-functional leadership. My strength lies in bridging business, customers, and engineering—translating complex requirements into clear product direction and scalable technical solutions. I’ve led products from early problem discovery through delivery and iteration, working closely with Engineering, Design, Business, and Operations teams. What I do best: • Own technical product initiatives end-to-end: discovery → requirements → delivery → iteration • Define PRDs, user stories, and roadmaps grounded in customer needs and system constraints • Partner deeply with engineering teams on architecture, APIs, scalability, and reliability • Use data and analytics to guide prioritization and decision-making • Balance speed, quality, and long-term platform thinking My background: • Started as a Software Engineer, building APIs and backend systems • Grew into Product Engineering leadership, managing teams and complex platforms • Now focused on Technical Product Management, where product strategy meets execution I’ve worked on platforms handling high traffic, real-time data, and operational workflows, and I’m especially interested in platform products, API-first systems, and B2B SaaS. 📌 Currently open to: Technical Product Manager / Senior Technical PM / Platform Product Manager roles
