Koustav Chakraborty — Product Manager
Strategic marketer with 8+ years building and scaling businesses across Amazon, Siemens and entrepreneurial ventures. I combine customer-first instincts, rigorous analytics and practical creativity—an approach sharpened at IIM Lucknow where I completed my MBA in Marketing. At Amazon I lead go-to-market and demand generation strategy for Fire TV India, and previously scaled the FMCG category for Amazon Retail, driving sustained category growth in a competitive marketplace. Earlier at Siemens I focused on B2B solution selling, stakeholder management and business development, which taught me how to close complex deals and align cross-functional partners. An entrepreneur at heart, I co-founded and grew a in-campus student food venture to profitability within four months. I was also recognized at the Amazon ACE Asia Pacific Competition, reinforcing my ability to apply analytical rigor and market intuition to complex business challenges. Core strengths: GTM strategy, product marketing, launch execution, growth marketing, digital commerce, category management, P&L ownership, cross-functional leadership, stakeholder management and analytics. I solve high-ambiguity problems and deliver practical, measurable outcomes. If you are working on product-led growth, marketing or e-commerce initiatives, let’s connect.
