Mission control Bengaluru · India
I’m Prateek—a product leader shaped by engineering, applied AI, and a decade of turning fuzzy customer problems into things teams can actually ship.
Selected work
A few products where the answer was not obvious at the start—and the decisions mattered as much as the launch.
Consumer AI · Services marketplace
How do you help people find the right professional when they cannot easily name what they need?
A discovery system combining open-ended intent, guided requirement-building, and explainable matching.
Open the case study →Seller platform · Marketplace
How might small businesses create a useful digital front door without assembling a full commerce stack?
A self-serve product for businesses to establish an online presence, share it, and sell products or services.
Open the case study →Category marketplace · Fresh commerce
What does specialist discovery need when selection, trust, and fulfilment constraints all matter?
A dedicated marketplace for navigating merchants, cuts, brands, and fulfilment—followed by a clear transition.
Open the case study →The long way round
Code taught me to see the system. AI taught me to respect uncertainty. Product taught me that neither matters until it works for someone.
Software Engineer · Research Assistant
I began close to the system—building and debugging video components—then moved into computer-vision research for Indian-road environments.
From optimising components to framing real-world problems.
Technical depth is most useful when it helps the team ask a sharper question.
AI Software Engineer → Product Manager II
I moved from building computer-vision capabilities for identity verification into owning KYC, fraud checks, and credit-onboarding journeys.
From model performance to the complete customer journey.
An AI product is an operating system of models, rules, people, and customer trust.
Product Manager → Senior Product Manager
My work has moved across specialist commerce, seller platforms, Pyng, and now post-order customer experience for the food marketplace.
From new marketplaces to scaled customer systems.
Product judgment includes knowing when to validate, scale, evolve, or stop.
