Where I add the most value

Four things I keep getting pulled into. Usually when the stakes are high and the path isn't clear yet.

AI product strategy

Picking the AI bets worth making, then shaping them into products with a real business case. Vision, LLMs, automation.

Zero to one

Idea to MVP in weeks, not quarters. I've done it as a founder, so I know what to cut and what really matters.

Enterprise at scale

Platforms, APIs and partner integrations that hold up inside big organisations and across markets.

Government and public sector

Digital services built for public bodies, where compliance, scale and citizen trust all matter at once.

One PM, three markets

Silicon Valley speed, India's build culture, and the Gulf's appetite for big transformation. I've worked inside all three.

Results over roadmaps

Roadmaps are easy to draw. Here's what actually came out the other end.

Founder DNA

I started as a developer, built my own companies, and still ship my own products on weekends.

So when I sit in a product room, I think about the P&L, the customer and the code at the same time. IIM Kozhikode MBA and a Certified Scrum Product Owner, for the record.
