Ananya Nandan — Product Manager
Turning chaos into clarity and ideas into impact - that’s my jam. After 6.5 years of navigating the tech universe, I discovered my true north in Product Management (surprisingly, while completing my MBA in International Business). The thrill of tackling ambiguous problems, diving headfirst into complex projects, and obsessing over customer needs, made donning the Product Manager hat, a no-brainer. ✈️ Currently at Expedia, I’m focused on connecting partners big and small to the universe of travelers, equipping them with the data, tools, and technology that empower their businesses, maximize potential, and enhance trust & safety in the ecosystem. Driving 0→1 initiatives, I’m building solutions that redefine how travelers and partners engage securely and creating a trusted marketplace that empowers partners to make travel great. Previously at Paytm, a fintech revolutionary, I was on a mission to simplify payments for 300Mn+ Indians. Before this, I levelled up customer experiences at Mobile Premier League, a gaming unicorn, where I worked on making casual, card, and fantasy games irresistible for 120Mn+ players across India, Nigeria, and the USA. 🎯 Alongside my day job, I mentor aspiring PMs and early-career product folks, leveraging my knowledge of Product Management that I’ve gained in the last 4 years, and helping them break into the industry and thrive once they’re in. With 2000+ mentees and counting, I’ve had the joy of teaching product management at top B-schools and guiding folks through resume building, mock interviews, and real-world problem-solving and honing product skills. Always happy to chat - I’m just a DM away. 📂 Curious about my work? ✅ Subscribe to my newsletter for fresh product insights every Friday morning: medium.com/products-demystified ✅ Take a peek at my solved product case studies: behance.net/ananyanandan 💼 My credentials?
