About

Hello! I'm Ajay, a customer-obsessed and results-driven Product Manager with over 3 years of experience in the dynamic FinTech and AdTech sectors. I'm passionate about tackling complex challenges and transforming them into intuitive, high-impact products that not only meet user needs but also drive significant business growth. My journey in product has been fueled by a desire to build from the ground up (0-to-1 innovation) and strategically scale products to new heights (1-to-100). During my tenure at PhonePe, I've had the privilege of leading several key initiatives. I've owned the P&L for a $12M (INR 100 Cr) monetization product suite, and I'm particularly proud of: Spearheading the launch of a "Deals" product that acquired 1 million new users monthly and delivered INR 20 Cr (~$2.4M USD) in additional annual revenue. Developing and launching an assisted Self-Serve Ads Manager platform, which boosted new advertiser acquisition by 25% and significantly improved operational efficiency. Reinventing our rewards product through personalization and UI/UX enhancements, leading to a 23% increase in funnel metrics and a 13% uplift in user retention. My approach to product management is rooted in a blend of strategic thinking, data-driven decision-making, and a deep empathy for the user. I excel in cross-functional team leadership, Agile and Scrum methodologies, product strategy development, roadmap planning, and Go-to-Market execution. I enjoy diving deep into analytics, conducting A/B tests, and working closely with engineering, design, and data science teams to deliver seamless user experiences and tangible results. I am always eager to learn and take on new challenges in a growth-oriented environment where I can leverage my skills to build innovative products that make a difference. I'm particularly interested in opportunities that allow me to work on globally impactful products and am open to exploring roles in dynamic tech hubs. Feel free to connect or reach out if you'd like to discuss product management, emerging tech, or potential collaborations!
