About

Product ownership, with an engineer's instincts.

CSPO-certified Technical Product Owner with 5+ years across B2B enterprise and BFSI platforms, driving OKR-aligned roadmaps end to end. I translate analytics, KPIs, and client feedback into prioritized backlogs, owning epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria across the agile lifecycle — with a strong cross-functional partnership across TPMs, engineering, and business stakeholders, and a growing edge in AI-augmented product development.

Off the clock, I prototype agentic workflows with Claude Code to validate early-stage business concepts.
