About

I’m a product leader with an engineering background and 8+ years of experience building and scaling AI-driven SaaS products across travel, fintech, and enterprise platforms. At TravelBank (a U.S. Bancorp company), I lead product strategy for Data & AI initiatives, while managing PMs across Travel, Platform & Growth, and Internationalization. I’ve helped scale our travel and spend ecosystem to $XXXM+ in annual revenue, launching LLM-powered products that enhance efficiency and trust at scale - from GPT-based travel assistants to AI-powered expense agents. What drives me is turning ambiguity into systems - using data, human-centered design, and rapid experimentation to solve complex problems at the intersection of product, growth, and technology. Before TravelBank, I built and launched products at Aislelabs and SAP, driving measurable growth and UX improvements across SaaS and enterprise solutions. Outside of work, I mentor PMs at Co.Lab, write about product strategy on keerthiabinesh.com, and experiment with side projects that explore AI evaluation, agentic workflows, and privacy-first automation. Let’s connect if you’re building in AI, travel tech, or data-driven platforms - or just want to swap notes on great products and better storytelling.
