I own the product and the numbers under it.

Growth at Flipkart, data platforms at Meesho, and two products I started myself. I've owned roadmaps and the instrumentation under them — and called time on two builds that weren't going to scale.

I'd rather ship the smaller thing this month and know whether it worked than ship the bigger one next quarter and guess.

I studied Metallurgical & Materials Engineering at IIT Roorkee and went straight into analytics at Flipkart, where the interesting part was never the dashboard — it was the argument the dashboard settled.

That pulled me into product. Two years at Flipkart, then Data Platforms at Meesho, then nine months building two products of my own to find out what I'd do without a company around me.

Work experience

Four places, two of which I started.

Marketplace growth, internal data platforms, and two products taken from an empty repo to launched.

Both my internships — Accenture Strategy and EY — came out of winning their case competitions rather than a CV screen.

How I work

Research is what buys the speed.

01

Research until the answer is obvious

Consumer, market and experts — all three, before anything gets built.

SummonLM started with a co-founder watching a real company's impressions halve in a single core-update week. Two weeks validating that before a line of code.
02

Cut it to the smallest thing that settles the question

The scope that proves the bet fastest, not the scope that covers everything.

At Meesho I scoped a three-phase data quality program and shipped phase one. Phases two and three were the right ideas; phase one was the one that would prove it worked.
03

Then move fast, because the thinking is done

Execution is quick when the arguments happened up front instead of mid‑build.

At Flipkart the exchange fix was a session‑state change. Thirteen months of instrumentation to be able to see it, and simple once we could.
04

Read the result honestly, including when it says stop

The number either moved or it didn't, and I would rather say which.

Both ventures ended on purpose. SummonLM never tracked whether pilot rankings moved — so I can't claim the product caused anything.
Strengths

Five things I'm usually brought in for.

Zero to one, before the spec exists

Two of the four things above started as an empty repo and a hypothesis. I'm comfortable in the stretch where nobody can tell you what to build, and comfortable killing it when the evidence says to.

Experiment design, read honestly

Two years of growth work at Flipkart taught me that most A/B tests fail at the design stage, not the analysis stage. I care about what a test can actually prove before anyone runs it.

Data platforms and the plumbing under the product

At Meesho I owned modelling, lineage and internal tooling. Unglamorous surface area, but every roadmap downstream of it is only as good as whether people trust the numbers.

Structuring a problem fast, under time pressure

Ten case competitions is a lot of reps at taking an unfamiliar industry, sizing it from public data, and landing on a defensible recommendation inside a weekend. Two of them turned into internships.

Building it myself, not just specifying it

Two things I took end to end: the technical checks inside SummonLM and the roadmap they fed, and Safe Buckets at Causal. I owned design and the frontend at both. I build with agentic coding tools now, including this site, so I can prototype an idea instead of describing it — and I know where those tools stop being useful.See the SummonLM build →See the Causal build →
