Experience

At scale
Amazon-grade program & product leadership
I led cross-functional teams - Program, Product, Software, and Data Engineering - to deliver large-scale automation and decision-support platforms across Operations, Quality, Training, Capacity Planning, and HR. I simplify complex workflows through data-driven design, intelligent automation, and mechanisms that turn intent into reliable outcomes.

Frameworks & AI
Creator of the Growth Diamond Model
I publish practical frameworks on structured problem-solving, product thinking, and execution at design-thinking.in. Increasingly, my work applies AI to real business problems - assisted workflows, decision systems, and rapid prototyping that is explainable, governable, and built to last.
Empathize → Define → Ideate → Develop → Implement
Two ways to work together
A framework built for real work
An evolution of the Double Diamond framework that emphasizes solution growth through iterative design, development, testing, and implementation. The Growth Diamond Model recognizes that solution development often requires a broader exploration space than problem discovery. The framework integrates design, development, testing, implementation, and continuous iteration to move ideas from need identification to market impact. The same framework is published openly in my Academy and used in sessions with colleges and teams.
- PSM: Problem · Solution · Market space
- EDIDI: Empathize · Define · Ideate · Develop · Implement
- Built for: Products, services, processes, and business models
What participants say
“The session forced us to slow down and listen before jumping to solutions. Our problem statement finally matched what customers were actually telling us.”
“I've sat through many innovation workshops. This one left us with artifacts we could use the next Monday - not just sticky notes on a wall.”
“The empathy interview practice was uncomfortable in the best way. We realized we'd been validating our assumptions, not discovering new ones.”
