About

Product Leader | AI & ML Enthusiast | Transforming Ideas into Scalable Solutions I am a product leader with 14+ years of experience driving technology-led transformation across healthcare, logistics, and SaaS. I combine analytical rigor with strategic product leadership, defining long-term vision while delivering measurable business outcomes. I specialize in building scalable platforms that bridge business needs with AI-driven innovation, aligning execution with organizational growth goals. AI & Automation Expertise I bring deep expertise in AI and automation, with hands-on experience in supervised learning, model optimization (XGBoost, LightGBM), generative AI, RPA, and agent-based architectures. My focus is on designing automation-first products that reduce operational bottlenecks, unlock efficiencies, and accelerate adoption in complex industries such as US healthcare. Key Achievements & Challenges Overcome At Element5, I led end-to-end healthcare automation deployments, streamlining payer and EHR workflows through AI-driven prior authorization and claims automation. Challenge: Highly regulated, fragmented workflows created adoption hurdles. Result: By designing configurable frameworks and strengthening payer partnerships, I reduced administrative overhead while ensuring compliance, directly improving provider efficiency. At Trukker, I launched the Trukker Pulse – Transport Management System, shifting manual, email-based bookings to a digital-first platform. Challenge: Users resisted moving away from entrenched email/phone habits. Result: I introduced an AI-enabled system that converted emails/WhatsApp into structured orders, driving a smoother transition and boosting order fulfillment by 20% across MENA. Team Leadership I have led and scaled cross-functional teams of 25 engineers, product designers, and associate product managers. I foster a culture of ownership, data-driven decision-making, and user empathy, ensuring alignment across engineering, design, data science, and business stakeholders.
