AI Product Manager with an engineer's hands. I shipped fullstack products to 50M+ users, then moved to deciding what to build. Now I do a Master's in AI at UNSW and build AI products end to end. I care as much about whether a thing is worth building as whether it works.
I've wanted to build things for as long as I can remember, first with code, then with product, startups, and AI.
I grew up in Bangalore, where it felt like everyone was building something. I wanted something of my own before I really knew what that meant.
I tried to start a company before I graduated: an “Uber for trucks” for small and mid-size factories. YC rejected it. It made their top 10% of rejections, which I've decided to count as an encouraging signal. Mostly it was the first time I thought past the code to the actual problem.
I moved to Sydney for a master's in AI at UNSW, mostly to see where the technology was heading. I got pulled into the founder world: a Startmate Founder Fellowship, the Peter Farrell Cup pitch competition, late nights at UNSW Founders. Humbling, in a useful way.
Each ships a working demo, an engineering case study, and a product case study. Every demo runs in mock mode, so it works with no API keys.
An evaluation and observability workbench that compares AI prompt / RAG / agent variants on quality, cost, latency, and failure modes, and recommends a release gate.
An AI product-intelligence workspace that ingests user feedback, clusters pain points, finds evidence, and generates PRDs, roadmap bets, and experiment plans, every claim cited.
A multimodal UX/product QA tool that reviews UI screenshots for accessibility, friction, copy clarity, and visual hierarchy, and returns prioritised, severity-scored recommendations.
A safe-agent demo that turns a business goal into a proposed multi-step workflow, runs only human-approved tool calls, and records every action in an audit trail.
Diving in the Andamans, teaching kids to swim in Sydney. The water taught me more about learning, patience, and trust than most things at work.
“Confidence changes everything. In water, and out of it.”
I'm JP, open to AI engineering and product roles, and to people building interesting things.
