I'm a Product Manager with 4+ years of experience building data and AI-powered products across fintech, web3, and analytics. I’ve led full 0→1 product cycles — from user discovery and problem framing to roadmap execution and feature delivery — with a strong bias toward outcomes, experimentation, and insight-driven decision-making. Currently at PYOR, I lead product for : (A) Xray-> a crypto analytics platform for institutional investors. I’ve owned the full product lifecycle — conducting 20+ user interviews with VCs, launching key features like a custom chart builder and Google Sheets API, and helping drive a 2x revenue increase while positioning Xray as a differentiated, cost-effective alternative to premium tools. (B) PulseChain AI-> an end-to-end LLM product that turns raw crypto metrics into natural-language decision frameworks for portfolio managers. I built a full-stack system (LangChain, FastAPI, CI/CD) with features like NAV attribution, convexity flags, and scenario simulation — reducing time-to-insight by 80% and delivering 95%+ relevant AI-generated insights. Previously at CoinSwitch, I worked as a Product Analyst for CoinSwitch Pro, where I designed user analytics dashboards, ran cohort analyses, and led growth experiments — resulting in improved feature adoption, retention, and funnel conversions. I also optimized GTM strategies and launched trading events to increase user engagement. I’m adept at combining product thinking with data depth — fluent in SQL, Python, Amplitude, Figma, and agile tools like JIRA. My strength lies in building from first principles, solving real user problems, and aligning cross-functional teams around outcomes.
