Prashant Sharma — Product Manager
Strategic and impact-driven Lead Product Manager with 12+ years of end-to-end experience in building scalable, high-impact products across the Fintech, B2B, and Enterprise Technology landscape. I specialize in leading complex product transformations, marrying business goals with technical depth to deliver intelligent, user-centric solutions that power global operations. At Mastercard, I currently lead the modernization of its core transaction switch configuration ecosystem, directly influencing systems that process a significant share of the company's global transactions. I’ve successfully delivered foundational products like Switch Configuration Manager (SCM) and centralized feature flag frameworks, enabling real-time data distribution through Kafka-based platforms—reducing deployment friction, increasing resilience, and empowering engineering teams across continents. Whether designing architecture for data harmonization, optimizing workflow efficiency, or streamlining stakeholder engagement across Product, Engineering, and Operations—I bring a hands-on, agile-first mindset paired with deep systems thinking and a data-informed product philosophy. Certified as a CSPO, I’m proficient in JIRA, Rally, Confluence, SQL, Tableau, QlikSense, and hold a strong record of aligning cross-functional teams under a common product vision. My background in business analysis, product design, and change management allows me to navigate complexity and ambiguity while consistently delivering clarity, innovation, and measurable business impact. Recognized through multiple leadership awards at Mastercard, Credit Suisse, Cognizant, and Infosys, I remain deeply committed to continuous improvement, scalable architecture, and meaningful customer experiences. I thrive at the intersection of strategy, execution, and innovation—and I’m always open to connecting with forward-thinking professionals and organizations building the next generation of enterprise platforms. #LeadProductManager #ProductInnovation #DigitalTransformation #FintechLeadership #B2BPlatforms #EnterpriseProducts #AgileProductManagement #CSPO #DataDrivenDecisions #CustomerCentricDesign #CloudEcosystems #PlatformStrategy #ScalableSolutions #ProductVision #TechLeadership
