I build AI-native products that scale from zero to revenue, from insight to impact.
Product Manager | AI × Healthcare | 0→1 & Scale | Founder Mindset
Built by curiosity, driven by impact.
I don't just "manage" products; I obsess over the translation of complex technology into meaningful human outcomes. With experience spanning Healthcare, Ed-Tech, and AI — from co-founding my first venture in 2014 to leading AI-native product development today — I've built a career on the belief that product management is as much about empathy as it is about execution.
At Genesilico.ai, I'm currently leading the charge in AI-native healthcare, building clinical decision support for oncologists and driving the product from alpha to scale. My background as a founder has instilled in me a "0→1" mindset — I'm as comfortable in the messy early discovery phase as I am navigating cross-functional execution at speed.
I believe the next era of product management is "AI-first," where our role evolves from writing requirements to orchestrating agents that solve real-world problems at scale.
Product Thinking & Philosophy
A structured approach to building in a world of high-velocity, agent-led development.
User Empathy First
Deep user understanding isn't optional—it's the foundation. I invest time in understanding pain points, workflows, and mental models before jumping to solutions.
Jobs-To-Be-Done
I look past demographic data to understand the underlying "job" a user hire a product for. In AI, this means identifying where automation adds value versus where human agency is paramount.
Opportunity Solution Trees
Bridging the gap between business goals and product output. I use OSTs to ensure every feature is mapped back to a real opportunity and a measurable outcome.
Data-Driven, Insight-Led
I balance quantitative metrics with qualitative insights. Numbers tell you what's happening; user conversations tell you why. Both are essential to make informed product decisions.
North Star Metrics
Focusing on the one metric that matters. For Healthcare AI, this is often a proxy for clinical outcome or diagnostic efficiency, ensuring alignment across tech and medical teams.
Human-in-the-loop
AI should be a multiplier, not a replacement. I design workflows where AI handles the cognitive heavy lifting while keeping the expert user in control of critical decisions.
Case Studies
Detailed explorations of product strategy, execution, and lessons learned through personal projects.
OpenRight – Creator Economy Protocol
The Problem: Creator Economy Friction
Content creators lose 70-80% of potential engagement when sharing YouTube links on Instagram or Twitter due to login walls and forced web views. I architected OpenRight to solve this fundamental friction in the creator economy.
Technical Solution & Execution
Built a "Smart Link" engine that detects the user's OS in <10ms and deep-links directly into the native YouTube app, bypassing social media login walls. Leveraged Cloudflare Workers for instant global redirection, achieving 100% native app open rate with <300ms latency worldwide.
Strategic Trade-off
Prioritized universal compatibility over feature richness — chose to focus on one thing done perfectly (OS detection + deep linking) rather than building a full link management platform, enabling creators to adopt instantly without setup.
Offline GPS Utility
Extreme Environment Design
Built a high-precision GPS utility for tracking speed, altitude, and coordinates without internet connectivity. Designed specifically for extreme environments like high-altitude trekking and aviation where reliability is non-negotiable.
Privacy-First Architecture
Prioritized sensor-direct telemetry and zero data collection, ensuring complete privacy. All processing happens on-device with no cloud dependencies, making it ideal for security-conscious users and remote expeditions.
Product Decision
Chose offline-first over feature-rich connectivity. While competitors focused on social sharing and cloud sync, this utility prioritizes reliability and privacy — critical for users where network access isn't guaranteed.
Voiceless Dog Rescue Platform
User Research & Problem Discovery
Interviewed dog shelter staff to understand operational pain points. Built a centralized digital ecosystem for 4good.ai's CSR initiative, balancing emotional storytelling with operational efficiency for non-profit dog rescue operations.
Product Features & Impact
Designed automated adoption pipeline, donation tracking, and custom CMS for rescue staff. The platform streamlines the entire rescue workflow from intake to adoption, reducing administrative overhead while improving adoption rates.
Design Philosophy
Prioritized emotional connection over technical complexity. Each rescued dog's story is showcased with empathy, making adoption easier while maintaining operational efficiency for shelter staff behind the scenes.
Duplicate File Finder – Visual Trust Framework
The Problem: Deletion Anxiety
Creators suffer from "Hard Drive Tax" — buying more storage because existing tools lack the visual context to delete high-value assets confidently. I architected a Trust Framework that moves beyond clinical file lists to a visual gallery experience.
Product Strategy & Solution
Implemented a "Smart Swap" mechanism and high-contrast status badges (Original vs Copy). Optimized the human-decision loop to process 1,000+ files in under 60 seconds by prioritizing visual clarity over technical flair.
Key Outcome
Achieved zero accidental deletions through a high-fidelity visual system that restores trust in digital archiving. Users moved from "anxious reviewers" to "power cleaners" within minutes.
TravelersTab
AI-Powered Travel Planning
Built an AI-driven platform where users generate custom itineraries through intelligent prompt engineering. Leveraged Claude AI to create personalized travel plans that adapt to user preferences, budget, and interests.
Community & Content Integration
Integrated video sharing and blog posting in a unified, engaging UI/UX. Created a community-driven platform where travelers can share experiences, tips, and recommendations, enhancing traveler engagement beyond just itinerary generation.
Portable ECG Monitor
Hardware-Software Integration
Designed a Bluetooth-enabled ECG monitor using Arduino, transmitting real-time cardiac data to smartphones for remote health monitoring. Bridged hardware sensors with mobile software for accessible health tracking.
Competition Success
Demonstrated working prototype at NMAMIT Project Expo, competing against 75 teams. Secured 3rd place recognition for innovation in accessible healthcare technology and robust hardware-software design.
BELTEUS
User Problem & Innovation
Identified portability friction in mobile charging users carrying separate power banks. Developed a portable power bank integrated into a wearable belt, eliminating the need for additional accessories while maintaining daily utility.
Funding & Validation
Pitched to NAIN Center and secured ₹300k in early-stage funding for product development. Validated market demand through customer interviews and competitive analysis, demonstrating product-market fit for wearable charging solutions.
Professional Experience
Key product initiatives and results from my work at leading companies.
Genesilico.ai – Precision Oncology Platform
0→1 Product Build for Oncologists
Led the discovery, scoping, and launch of an AI-powered clinical decision support product for oncologists. Conducted structured user research with clinical users to map workflow friction points, defined the feature prioritization framework, and drove cross-functional alignment across engineering, data science, and clinical stakeholders from day one.
Launch & Instrumentation
Defined and executed the alpha launch plan for CancerAI — from Go/No-Go readiness criteria through user onboarding. Set up the product analytics infrastructure to track activation, feature adoption, and session quality, enabling data-informed iteration from the first week of live usage.
Cross-Functional Ownership
Worked directly with oncologists, genetic counselors, and research scientists to validate product decisions against real clinical workflows. Managed the science team dependency as a named cross-functional stakeholder — aligning on evaluation criteria, safety thresholds, and roadmap priorities across engineering, data, and clinical functions.
Key Decision
Chose to establish explicit safety gates — hallucination thresholds, PHI compliance, and Sev1 incident resolution — as hard requirements before beta progression. Slower to ship, but the right call for clinical trust and long-term adoption.
Pain Relief App – UX Overhaul
AI-Powered Empathetic Care
Introduced an AI assistant for pain therapy that transformed the user experience from navigating 80 complex screens to 3 intuitive interactions. The AI handled 90% of tasks through conversational chat, creating the experience of talking to a health professional with genuine empathy.
Dual Role: PM & UX Designer
Led full product revamp from both angles — understanding user pain points in traditional apps as PM, and executing complete UX redesign. Played major role in market release and integrated customer feedback into continuous product improvements.
Business Impact
The empathetic AI experience directly drove device sales improvement. User engagement grew by 40%, and we scaled revenue to ₹1L/day consistently — proving that AI-powered simplicity and empathy are the ultimate sophistication in healthcare products.
AI as Leverage
How I integrate AI into the daily craft of product management — not as a replacement, but as a cognitive multiplier.
Strategic Automation
Led a POC using AI agents to automate Big Room Planning, reducing planning cycle time by 25% through streamlined cross-functional orchestration.
Insight Synthesis
Leveraging LLMs to cluster user feedback and clinical data into opportunity themes, allowing for faster response to clinical research needs.
AI-Assisted Prototyping
I embrace AI-assisted development and prompt engineering to build high-fidelity MVPs (like TravelersTab) and validate product-market fit within days.
"The next generation of great PMs won't be defined by their ability to write requirements, but by their ability to orchestrate AI agents to build what matters."
