Lead Technical Product Manager
About Me
I am a Product Manager with over 12 years of experience specializing in product strategy, roadmap development, and end-to-end product delivery within Open Banking, Payments, and Fraud Prevention platforms. Throughout my career, I have successfully led cross-functional teams of more than 90 engineers and delivered products valued at $185 million, serving over 3,000 financial institutions globally. My expertise lies in driving program throughput improvements by implementing SAFe Agile frameworks and standardizing sprint planning processes.
I excel in backlog prioritization, stakeholder management, go-to-market execution, and ensuring regulatory compliance in fast-paced, highly regulated fintech environments. I have a proven track record of launching cloud-native platforms on AWS, significantly reducing production incidents, and delivering high-impact products that meet stringent industry standards.
In my current role as Lead Product Manager at Mastercard, I lead product strategy and delivery for the Global Open Finance Platform, managing a $100 million portfolio and coordinating efforts across multiple regions including the U.S., Australia, India, and Europe. I have driven substantial growth in services revenue by embedding global regulatory controls directly into platform design and improved portfolio data quality through consolidation of reporting tools.
Previously, I owned product strategy for Mastercard's AI-driven Decision Management platform, delivering $185 million in business value and scaling Agile delivery across multiple global teams. I have also managed global consumer authentication platforms, improving transaction reliability and reducing compliance risks significantly.
My background includes foundational systems analysis and solution design experience from Tata Consultancy Services, where I developed strong skills in requirements management and stakeholder communication. I hold an MBA in Management Information Systems and a Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Instrumentation. I am certified in PMI-PBA, SAFe Product Owner/Product Manager, SAFe 4 Agilist, Certified Professional Scrum Master, and AI Product Management.
