About Me: I am an expert in FinTech across consumer financial services, digital wallets, checkout, payments, issuance and tokenization. Currently, I am driving user growth, consumer engagement, and new market entry for PayPal Debit Card, launching multiple zero-to-one features like monthly rewards, pay-later capabilities for in-store payments, and auto-presentment at checkout including preferred way to pay. I have also worked on scaling & optimizing payment platforms by working with card networks and merchants to improve auth rate and transaction expense. Why am I on topmate? - In the last 5 years I have mentored many candidates, helping them map their career journey or break into product management. - Topmate helps me to manage my time between mentorship and my professional commitments better. This is a two way street: I invest my time in your growth, and in return I gain by learning from your experience. What do I bring to the table as a mentor? - I am largely a self-made person, and I had to figure out my own way (of course I had excellent mentors to help me out). So I know what works and what does not. I will work with you to put together a plan than you can execute, and that works for you. Get to know me: In the last 12 years, I have picked up the following skills & lifelong learnings along the way: - Product management: Balancing commercial success with user delight - Strategy consulting: Building credibility with executives - B. School: Learnt about balance sheets - Software development: Learnt how to search for information, and also how to get proficient in highly technical areas
