About

Product Manager passionate about solving complex problems at scale through data, design, and empathy. With 3+ years of experience at Porter, I’ve driven cost optimisation, partner engagement, and fulfilment efficiency across multiple verticals. I’ve led multiple 0→1 and 1→N initiatives - from reducing call centre cost per order (₹12.6 → ₹2.4, ₹5Cr/month savings) to launching gamified engagement programs impacting 100K+ partners. Recently, I’ve focused on Outstation logistics, improving fulfilment and conversion through experimentation, analytics, and UX-driven optimisation. I enjoy building systems that balance business impact with user delight and thrive on connecting user insights with scalable design. Currently exploring Product Management and Program Management opportunities in consumer-tech and logistics-tech, where I can contribute to execution, discovery, and product scaling.
