Nilaya Meda — Product Manager
Product Manager with 5+ years building AI-first products and data-driven experiences—especially in environments where accuracy, governance, and trust matter. I enjoy the work between “cool model” and “real product”: defining the right problem, making tradeoffs visible, and shipping something users rely on. My day-to-day is a mix of strategy and execution—partnering with engineering and data science to shape roadmaps, set measurable success criteria, and iterate quickly based on user feedback and performance signals. I’m particularly interested in applied AI, evaluation/quality loops, and designing product experiences that make intelligent systems understandable and usable. I earned my Master’s in Engineering Management from Cornell and bring a structured, systems approach to building and scaling products. I’m also big on paying it forward—my own path came from persistence (mass applying, peer outreach, and learning fast), and I enjoy helping others navigate recruiting and early-career growth. Always happy to connect with folks working on applied AI, AI product strategy, and responsible deployment.
