About

Strategic AI Product, Operations, Analytics and Commercial Enablement Leader with 20+ years of experience translating long-term business vision into scalable technology, revenue, and customer outcomes. Backed by an MBA (PGPEM) from IIM Bangalore, I specialize in applying data-driven insights, AI, and design thinking to solve complex customer problems in partnership with Sales, GTM, and Account teams. As an AI Product Leader, I have led the end-to-end lifecycle of AI-powered products while working closely with Sales and Customer-facing teams to support go-to-market execution, enterprise deals, renewals, expansions, and contract commitments. I bring a strong balance of technical depth, commercial judgment, and customer empathy, ensuring product and delivery promises made during sales cycles are executable and value-accretive. My experience includes: Defining AI product strategy and multi-year roadmaps aligned to revenue and market priorities Partnering with Sales, Pre-Sales, and Account Management to support enterprise deals, renewals, expansions, and executive QBRs Translating customer and sales feedback into product commitments, SOWs, SLAs, and delivery plans Leading and mentoring cross-functional teams (AI engineers, data scientists, product managers) Designing and executing go-to-market strategies for AI-driven products alongside Sales and Marketing Using KPIs, adoption metrics, and customer data to drive renewals, retention, and expansion readiness Ensuring compliance with regulatory and ethical AI standards in enterprise and regulated environments Acting as a senior escalation point to resolve commercial, product, and delivery misalignment I have worked across High Tech, Financial Services, Travel, Media, Retail, and Telecommunications, consistently operating at the intersection of Product, AI, Sales, Operations, and Customer Success. Outside work, I’m a health and fitness enthusiast and lifelong learner who values disciplined execution, long-term thinking, and empowering people to perform at their best. I enjoy working with strong sales, product, and engineering leaders to build durable revenue, trusted customer relationships, and meaningful business impact. 📩 Reach me at: LinkedIn (Message) 📧 gowtham66866@gmail.com
