About

Professional summary

I am a results-driven Business Analyst, Product Manager, and Project Manager with three years of experience delivering digital products, enterprise applications, and transformation initiatives. I translate business needs into prioritized product requirements, actionable roadmaps, and measurable technology outcomes.

I have managed end-to-end SDLC delivery across cross-functional engineering, QA, sales, telesales, operations, and customer-support teams. My experience includes requirements gathering, BRD and FRD preparation, backlog prioritization, sprint planning, UAT, release governance, Go-Live management, and stakeholder communication.

At Asian Paints, I have owned delivery for enterprise sales and service applications, including TAP, MyAwaz, and MasterStroks. I have delivered automation, onboarding, payment-integration, dashboard, UI/UX, and application-performance initiatives that improved operational efficiency and business outcomes.

I also bring startup consulting experience, where I led digital transformation programs, coordinated Website 2.0 and customer-app modernization, and delivered more than 30 prioritized releases. My work has contributed to improved website sales, stronger CRM adoption, and consistent Agile delivery.

I am skilled at bridging business priorities with technical dependencies across frontend, backend, Android, APIs, databases, cloud, and on-premise environments. I use data, customer insights, process analysis, and structured project governance to drive product adoption, improve customer experience, and deliver reliable releases.
