15+ years turning early-stage ideas into platform-scale products: from 0-to-1 B2B SaaS builds running at national scale to independent products shipped end-to-end with AI as the build partner.

Product Validation & Sourcing Engineer · TomTom

Product testing, benchmarking, and data supplier management across India.

Fifteen-plus years moving between engineering, data, and product: GIS and process engineering at TomTom, senior product management at Ola and Ola Electric, now building independent B2B SaaS ventures with AI as the execution partner. Both modes taught the same lesson: ship the smallest real thing, watch what people do with it, then build the next part.

0-to-1, twice

Led Ola Maps from an internal tool to an external B2B SaaS platform. Now doing the same independently, across four products.

Research, not just user stories

Post-release analytics, PRDs, and coaching other PMs were part of the day job at both Ola and TomTom.

Cross-functional by necessity

Bangkok, Pune, and remote teams; stakeholder mapping and an internship program built from scratch at TomTom.

AI as a build partner

Products shipped solo, with AI doing the heavy lifting on execution — not a buzzword, a working method.
