𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆: Curious Generalist | Product Innovator in BFSI | Strategic Partnerships Guided by the belief that "If knowledge is power, curiosity is the muscle," I bring 4+ years of experience in banking across roles including Product Management, Program Management, and Partnerships. I’ve led pivotal projects like 𝘈𝘹𝘪𝘴 𝘉𝘢𝘯𝘬’𝘴 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘧𝘦𝘳 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮, a first-of-its-kind initiative in the industry. This entrepreneurial endeavor allowed me to build a new initiative from the ground up, a first even for the bank. As a Product Manager, I managed 𝘈𝘵𝘭𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘢𝘨𝘯𝘶𝘴, two of 𝘈𝘹𝘪𝘴 𝘉𝘢𝘯𝘬'𝘴 𝘧𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴. I was instrumental in driving Atlas through its growth phase and relaunching Magnus with enhanced features. Recently, I shifted to a Partnerships Manager role in 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘗𝘢𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴. This journey continues to deepen my understanding of the payments ecosystem and broaden my skills in leadership and execution.𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘁𝘀: Strong process orientation, first principles thinking, customer-centric, results-oriented collaborator, adaptable and resilient𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱: MBA graduate from IIM Kozhikode, majoring in Strategy and Marketing, and an undergraduate in Electrical engineering from NIT Surat.𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸: I’m driven by adventure and exploration.
